The Furano 8VSB/HD-SDI+HDMI is a broadcast oriented low latency MPEG-2 and H.264 decoder that supports all of the standard broadcast formats used throughout the world, including all North American standards.
The unit supports 8VSB, ASI, and IP input, and HD-SDI, HDMI, and CVBS outputs. Other optional RF input and/or optional YPbPr output is available. The ten bit encoding results in richer color spaces and super crisp video. Support for embedded audio includes Dolby® Digital® (AC-3), MPEG-1 Layer II, AAC-LC, and HE-AAC.
.The Furano is Magnum chip based. Due to their long experience at C3, Magnum Semiconductor created one of the world’s best quality encoder chips.
This unit implements 4:2:2 decoding at 150 milliseconds latency. This is unusual since low latency is hard to implement.
