Herd of Hippos Gathers at PSL
Video specialists and event solutions company PSL has further expanded its rental inventory of Green Hippo's Hippotizer Media Servers, and is currently the only rental house in the UK to provide systems complete with the additional cards which enable VGA and SDI input.
PSL offers both the Stage and Express Hippotizer models, bringing high quality media playback solutions to the live presentation industry. Live events, concerts, television, clubs and theatre can all use the system to enhance their productions.
With eight individually configurable layers of 1024 x 768 resolution media, multi-level previews for each channel and a new user interface, the Hippotizer Stage is ideal as the heart of any controlled environment. Powerful effects, including fully variable blur in two flavours, beat detection, chromakey and alpha-channel capabilities, together with super-precise 16-bit keystone adjustment, make it the perfect partner for any live environment.
PSL has added extra capture cards to multiply the possible applications for the system. These are the only rental Hippotizers in the UK to offer full-resolution VGA inserts.
Also in the PSL inventory is the the entry-level Hippotizer Express, which still gives professional quality output (1024 x 768) working with industry-standard PAL and NTSC media on up to four layers. Employing the same user interface as seen across the range, a multitude of control options, and the same abilities with real-time effects and 3D graphics as the Stage version, it is the obvious choice for any general-purpose video application.
