Amiga Hardware DatabaseCompany Electronic Design, Germany | Date 1995 | Amiga any Amiga | Interface RGB port, serial port |
- genlock
- composite and Y/C inputs and outputs
- automatic input recognition with priority for the Y/C signal
- adjustable color, contrast, luminance and white level (separate red, green, blue) of the source video signal
- adjustable black level of the computer image
- picture parameters can be stored and recalled
- independent fading of the computer and video image
- fade to black
- manual fading - the faders serve to set the degree of blending
- automatic fading - the faders serve to set the fading time between 0.2 - 20 seconds
- RGB monitor switch: switches the display between genlock and computer picture without affecting the video outputs
- bluebox keying switch: turns on Chroma and Luma keying - finds a specific color with a certain tolerance (to compensate for noise) in the video picture for keying
- keying invert switch: when inactive, video is projected onto the computer image where color 0 is - when active, video is shown at positions other than color 0
- alpha overlay switch: allows semi-transparent colors or anti-aliasing
- built in black burst generator for recording the computer image without receiving a video source
- built in test image generator for optimized adjustment of all image parameters
- sound mixer
- two stereo inputs (4× RCA)
- microphone input (1× 3.5 mm jack)
- stereo output (2× RCA)
- microphone volume adjustment knob
- faders control the volume of the two audio channels
- during automatic fading the video and audio faders can be synchronized
- adjustable treble, bass and gain for all three audio sources independently
- notes
- LCD display for picture and audio parameters and values
- VITC timecode support
- all functions can be controlled through the serial port
- integrated ARexx port
- standby mode - when the genlock is not needed it is possible to work on the computer without disconnecting it - all Amiga screen modes are passed through to the RGB monitor
- for operation with the A3000's video enhancer, the "A3000" jumper has to be set on the Sirius' circuit board
