Saving Facility Costs

ProHD’s support for “Super-Encoded” HD format gives you full HDV720p capability with a real-time data stream of just 19 Mbps (2.4MB/s). A one-

ProHD requires only one-sixth capacity for storing clips

minute news clip therefore requires only 150MB of storage per minute of video, compared with up to 900MB for competing professional systems. This economical bandwidth requirement translates into substantial cost savings for broadcasters that consume large amounts of media by reducing the need for expansion of file server capacity and network bandwidth.
