Multi Format Player
MBP-100MP
MBP-100MP

The MBP-100MP is a 1RU size multi-format player offering HD-SDI output of miscellaneous files.
The major file formats used in video production, including various MXF files like XDCAM HD and P2HD are supported. The unit is very useful for building a file-based system allowing for the effective use of existing baseband system assets.


Playback of Miscellaneous File Formats Supported
Playback of Miscellaneous File Formats Supported
Support for audio files conforming to various formats
Supported file formats are provided in plug-in form and more will be added as needed
Miscellaneous files can be collected via Ethernet in the main unit’s storage (SSD)
Equipped with HD-SDI output and capable of outputting various files collected in the main unit as baseband signal
Proves its effectiveness when you need to connect to a baseband system in an environment with multiple file formats mixed together
Support for up to 8 channel audio output in embedded format

Control Software
The control software uses thumbnail images, which let you confirm the content of recorded clips at a glance (file format, file name, metadata, icons, etc.)
By incorporating footage into the “MediaConcierge™” media management system, the unit can be used as a clip server, with footage management and transmitted program control using a database.
*Metadata cannot be displayed in a uniform manner, since it will be read differently according to the file format.



Application Examples
Bank registration / File receiving terminal
application
Ideal for use in systems that cannot limit file formats when importing footage
Allows use as file input terminal when continuous bank operation is needed with baseband systems
Media recorded by camcorder, etc, is forwarded to the MBP-100MP over drives manufactured by various companies and output via HD-SDI baseband signals
