NNovia launch FireSwitch
NNovia, manufacturer of professional Digital Video Recorders (DVRs) and other complimentary DV products, have announced that they are shipping FireSwitch, a frame accurate, 4x1 DV switcher that allows up to four independent, nonsynchronised DV sources to be connected and switched 'glitch-free' for multicamera live video production.
Based on nNovia's patent-pending DV switching technology, FireSwitch is an asynchronous, IEEE-1394 DV 4x1 switch that provides two key features necessary for live production; frame rate synchronization and accurate frame boundary switching.
FireSwitch automatically adjusts its output rate to match the selected input source and prevents the display of partial video frame data (glitches) as well as video data loss by switching exactly at the frame boundary. As a result, DV-based live production can be used in place of the traditional, genlock-based analogue alternative.
