The Videum 2 Broadcaster is a new generation professional-quality audio and video capturing solution targeted for streaming media encoding systems. Based on Winnov's AVX ASIC technology, it digitizes and encodes unmatched streaming media quality. This technology enables you to encode various video sizes and audio quality, for Microsoft Windows Media and RealNetworks Technologies.

The Videum 2 Broadcaster product consists of the Videum II digitizing board, which can capture 30 frames per second at a resolution of 640x480 (uncompressed video format), and the breakout box, featuring 2 XLR audio connectors, 4 phono audio connectors and 2 BNC video connectors.

BENEFITS: Videum 2 Broadcaster employs studio quality audio (XLR) and video (BNC) locking connectors, the same connectors that professional broadcasters have relied upon for years for high-quality signal paths and that won't be pulled loose.

Videum 2 Broadcaster gives the professional webcasters flexibility and accessibility thanks to the breakout box. The new breakout box, by featuring 2 XLR audio connectors, 4 phono audio connectors and 2 BNC video connectors, offers a unique solution for anyone who desires the most performance audio and video. Since professional connectors won't fit in a regular PC, having them in a separate box will give them an easy rackmount access and more flexibility to fit up to four connectors in one unit rack. Thus, the new breakout box eliminates PC cable clutter and provides the easiest access to Videum2 digitizing board.

The Videum 2 capture board is the only video capture card that can:

- Provide the highest quality streaming audio and video. A new audio technology based on the AC97 ensures that noise is restricted from your webcast.

- Provide the highest capture performance with lower overall CPU usage.

- Capture uncompressed (YUY2) video up to 640*480 at 30 frames per second (including in 2 fields interleaved mode).

- Support wide screen formats: DVD: 640 by 360 (16:9) and 640 by 272 (2.35:1)

- Enable users to control their streams with more precision. The capture settings and image settings can be adjusted in smaller steps while encoding.
