Matrox Imaging announces capture card for DVR applications

September 24, Las Vegasl, USA - Today at ASIS 2007, Matrox Imaging is announcing the Matrox Morphis DVR-16, a scalable video capture card with real-time multi-channel compression specifically designed for today’s Digital Video Recorders (DVRs). The Morphis DVR-16 card is designed for multiple-channel recording applications, explains Fabio Perelli, Product Manager, Matrox Imaging. It has all the features needed for DVR applications that require compression of audio and video - at a very competitive price.

The Morphis DVR-16 captures from NTSC, PAL, RS-170 and CCIR video sources. A PCI/PCIe card, the Morphis DVR-16 is scalable and can record from 4 to 16 channels of compressed video and audio. Each channel supports motion, blind and night detection, as well as detection of video loss. The hardware engine can perform real-time compression in MJPEG, and MPEG-4 formats. The display overlay also supports region blanking.

Software support is available for Microsoft® Windows® XP, and consists of the field-proven, hardware-independent Matrox Imaging Library (MIL)/ActiveMIL or MIL-Lite/ActiveMIL-Lite development toolkits for creating custom applications.
