HDCAM SR format is
Sony's highest quality production format, delivering RGB 4:4:4 full
bandwidth High Definition for unprecedented picture quality.
As HD-based programme origination has escalated for feature films,
HDTV and post production, HDCAM SR has become the natural choice
for the interchange and delivery of HD content due to the virtually
uncompressed picture quality, 12 audio channels, exceptional
reliability, double speed transfer and many other advanced
features.
The success of HDCAM SR has naturally led to a requirement for a
playback-only ingest VTR - the SRW-5100 Studio Player.
The SRW-5100 is equipped with almost all the same key features as
the SRW-5800 apart from recording and network file transfer
capabilities. The SRW-5100 does fully support 880 Mbps playback
supporting all SQ and HQ modes, dual channel (3D), 444 mode and X2
transfer speed to certain NLE.
A new option introduced with the SRW-5100 allows HDV output for
simultaneous offline ingest to a non-linear editor via i.Link
Highly cost
efficient
Sony HDCAM-SR VTRs - the RGB 4:4:4 full-bandwidth high-definition
VTRs at the top of the Sony HD VTR line-up - have a critical role
as a master format for movie-making, commercial productions, and
high-end HDTV. It is also the interchange and delivery format for
most HD broadcasters, as well as the required delivery format for
3D HD programming, which is an exciting new development.
Supporting all SMPTE standard 1080 and 720 formats up to 59.94P, 3G
interface with 3D recording on one tape, x2 ingest to servers, SR
technology increases the speed and productivity of all
operations.
The SRW-5100 is designed, and priced, to be a very cost efficient
player supporting HDCAM SR, HDCAM* and Digital Betacam * formats
for programme ingest and transfer to offline and online editing
systems. It is ideal for ingest to servers, tape interchange and
delivery playback, on-set viewing and any application requiring
playback of HDCAM SR tapes for viewing or quality evaluation.
The /2 version adds a lot of new functionality including double
speed playback and 3D RGB playback.
The /2 upgrade also adds support for 1080 50P and 60P (422)
playback as well as RGB SQ mode (440 Mbps) as standard, so there is
no need for an additional HKSR-5103 board any longer.
* using the optional HKSR-5802 board
Full support
for HDCAM SR
The SRW-5100 supports all major 1080 and 720 frame rates up to 30P,
plus RGB SQ and HQ, 1080/50P, 1080/60P and double speed transfer
(HDCAM SR recorded tapes only)
Compatible
with most NLE systems
Allows offline editing output directly to almost any compatible
offline NLE system using common i.LINK (FireWire) interface.
Easily
expandible
Optional boards allow quick and easy expansion with additional
features when and if you need them.

• HDCAM-SR Format - For
Exceptionally High Picture Quality Playback
The SRW-5100 player adopts the HDCAM SR format and plays back 1920
x 1080 resolution high-definition signals using the MPEG-4 Studio
Profile compression scheme with a very mild compression ratio of
2.7:1 (4:2:2), 4:1 (4:4:4 SQ) or 2:1 (4:4:4 HQ) and 10-bit colour
depth. It enables both full-bandwidth 4:4:4 RGB and high-quality
4:2:2 Y/Cb/Cr playback, delivering optimal picture performance to
suit many different production requirements.
• HQ
mode
The SRW-5100 player can playback tapes recorded at the high data
rate of 880 Mb/s, for 4:2:2/1080/60P and 50P mode, and 4:4:4 High
Quality (HQ) mode with the HKSR-5103 option board.
The 4:2:2/1080/60P and 50P recording mode is highly compatible with
computer graphics, games and other progressive-based programmes. It
also offers exceptional picture performance when converting
material originated in 1080/60P or 50P format to 720P format, due
to its original high resolution of 1920 x 1080 (Requires
HKSR-5001/20 option board). Another benefit of using the
4:2:2/1080/60P and 50P recording mode is that it enables image
creation with perfect playback slow-motion effects. The F35
recording mode of RGB 444 50P recording is also supported for
playback at speeds below 30P.
HQ mode also allows 4:4:4 RGB recordings with a milder compression
ratio of 2:1. This can achieve higher picture quality compared with
recording at 440 Mb/s, depending on the picture, and is ideal when
the highest possible image quality is the top priority.
• Double
Speed Playback
The SRW-5100 allows all material whether 422 or RGB 444 to be
transferred to servers and nonlinear editing systems at twice the
normal speed using a standard Dual-link HD-SDI or single 3G
interface. RGB 444 x2 playback using Dual 3G links is also
supported.
• 3D
support
Both 422 and RGB 444 playback (RGB using Dual 3G interface) is
supported, recording is therefore onto one tape for extreme
security, perfect L/R synchronisation and 12 channels of audio.
• 96KHz
audio sampling support
At SQ mode (440 Mbps) 6 channels of 96 KHZ playback are supported,
while at HQ mode (880 Mbps) 12 channels are supported. This is
particularly useful for BluRay Mastering.
• 2K
mode
The 5100/2 can now support 3 different 2K modes with real time
playback. Firstly 2048 x 1080 RGB 10 bit, then the DCI standard of
2048 x 1080 12 bit XYZ (Digital Cinema standard) and lastly full
open gate 2048 x 1556 playback
• Legacy
Playback Capability
The SRW-5100 can optionally play back HDCAM and Digital Betacam
format tapes for more flexible operation, using the optional
HKSR-5802 board.
• Internal
Format Conversion
The SRW-5100/2 is optionally equipped with a powerful internal
format converter that enables many different types of conversion
such as 3-2 pull-down, up-conversion, down-conversion,
cross-conversion and colour-space conversion. This powerful
optional HKSR-5001 format converter board makes the SRW-5100/2 very
versatile in post-production.
• Easy
Management of Setup/System Menus
The SRW-5100/2 offers a highly effective way to manage its System
Menu. Up to eight groups of parameters in the System Menu and Setup
Menu can be individually saved as bank memory onto the internal
memory of the VTR. They can also be saved onto Memory Stick media,
enabling them to be copied onto other SRW-5100 VTRs for quick and
consistent setup of multiple VTRs.
Furthermore, equipped with an Ethernet interface, the SRW-5100
allows operators to remotely view the setup parameters saved in the
VTR's memory bank, and to select a bank they want to use through a
PC.
• HDV and
HDMI output option
Uniquely the SRW-5100/2 can use the optional HKSR-5105 board to
output an offline HDV format signal. This is only available in 1080
50i and 59.94i modes, although 23.98PsF can use pull down mode to
output in 59.94i. AV/C control and 4 channel audio are supported
for both HDCAM and HDCAM SR tapes. The HDMI output is available for
RGB monitoring on consumer style displays
• SRW-5100/2
Format Support
In addition to the numerous formats supported by the SRW-5100
Series, the SRW-5100/2 introduced support for the following formats
without any extra boards - RGB SQ, 2 x Playback @ 422, 2 x Playback
@ RGB SQ and 1080 50P/60P playback.
In addition, if the HKSR-5103 board is installed in a SRW-5100/2,
the following additional new playback formats are supported; 3D @
422, 3D @ RGB SQ, RGB HQ, 2K mode and 12bit operation.
