System Overview
Boards in PCI Slots
The following sections explain the functions of each peripheral board
located in an internal PCI slot.
Meridien II Digital Media Board Set
The Meridien II digital media board set is a PCI board and a daughter
board that provides a PCI interface for direct memory access (DMA)
on the system, compression and decompression functions, and color
correction circuitry. The board set also interfaces the 3D DVE effects
board (Genie), and acts as an interface to the Meridien I/O box.
Over-The-Top Connector
The over-the-top connector connects the Meridien II digital media
board set to the 3D DVE effects board. This is the original over-the-top
connector used with the IBM 6889 system and
not
the flexible
over-the-top connector used with the IBM 6866 system.
Meridien 3D DVE Effects Board
The original Meridien 3D DVE effects board (Genie effects board)
provides 3D video effects to enhance video production. The board
uses one PCI slot.

The original Meridien 3D DVE effects board, Genie, was connected to an
Avid designed daughter board when attached to the Meridien I board. This
connection is no longer needed when you connect the Genie to the
Meridien II board set.
