Blackmagic Design Inc. today
announced that its popular range of DeckLink cards are the only video capture
cards available to enable two Softron MovieRecorder applications running on a
single MacPro™ workstation to simultaneously capture video from two different
sources. Using a MacPro coupled with two DeckLink cards and two applications
of Softron MovieRecorder significantly enhances any facility's ingest capabilities.
“MovieRecorder greatly enhances any facility’s ingest capabilities and does so
at an incredibly low infrastructure investment, in many instances, using available
hardware,” said Mike Skibra, Softron Media Services, Business Development Manager.
“This is because a single MacPro workstation, coupled with two DeckLink cards
and two applications of MovieRecorder, running in a shared storage environment,
can give multiple users access to the recording station and the recorded media
without the need to purchase additional hardware devices at significantly higher
cost.”

MovieRecorder is used in numerous facilities around the world ranging from news
and sports broadcasters, educational institutions, religious broadcasters and
post production facilities.

“Professionals at every level are going to love the fact that they can use their
DeckLink card with MovieRecorder to simultaneously capture video from two different
sources,” said Dan May, President, Blackmagic Design, Inc. “We are very pleased
to support such a versatile and powerful application as MovieRecorder, making
available another excellent tool to facilitate our customers’ creativity and
production.”
