Overview
The Sony MVE-8000A-C DME Processor Pack is a
multifunction digital video effects unit for use in a system
configured around an MVS-8000/8000A Multi Format
Switcher System.
The MVE-8000A-C is a generic name of the DME
processor unit having option boards installed in it.
Features
Multi format support
This unit supports both HDTV and SDTV signal formats,
which can be easily selected from the center control panel
for the MVS-8000/8000A system without exchanging
expansion boards. The wide range of supported signal
formats allows the unit to be used in many different video
production environments. The following signal formats
are supported.
• SDTV formats: 480i/59.94, 576i/50
• HDTV formats: 1080i/50, 1080i/59.94, 1080i/60,
1080p/23.976sF, 1080p/24sF, 1080p/25sF, 1080p/
29.97sF, 1080p/30sF, 720p/59.94
Rich variety of effects
The unit supports a wide variety of effects and functions
such as 3D linear transforms (including expand and
reduce) and borders. The effects and functions supported
are as follows.
• 3D linear transforms (expand, reduce, move, rotate)
• Border / Crop
• Defocus / Blur
• Multi-move
• Color modifiers (sepia, monochrome, negative,
posterization, solarization, contrast)
• Mosaic
• Freeze
• Lighting

• Background
• Graphics display
• Drop shadow(2-channel effect)
• Combiner
• Brick (3-channel effect)
Up to four DME channels in a single unit
DME boards can be installed to enable up to four
independent DME channels in a single unit, for space
savings and energy efficiency. Because there are multiple
internal channels, up to 4-channel effects can be applied
without making any special connections.
Linked operation with switcher processor
This unit is connected to the MVS-8000/8000A Multi
Format Switcher Processor by a special interface, which
allows DME wipes, processed keys and a wide variety of
other DME effects to be used as if they were switcher
functions. All DME operations can be controlled from the
MVS-8000/8000A system’s center control panel.
Optional backup power supply
Installation of an optional HK-PSU02 Power Supply Unit
provides backup power in addition to the power supply
unit supplied as standard equipment. This reduces the risk
of power trouble and increases the reliability of live
broadcast systems.
