DVC Marcom Digital invites you to use your imagination...

Imagine being able to search for and replay videos, at any time, from perhaps thousands of titles, in the classroom, instantly, with no manual intervention by library staff. Imagine previewing videos and preparing lessons from any PC. Imagine if you could save notes for later use by yourself or others, along with a video or as a lesson plan.

Imagine no longer.

•If you can play a DVD, you can use DVC Marcom Digital.

•Now, more than ever, Digital Video Commander puts you in command.

How does DVC Marcom Digital work?

In a classroom

1.Using either the Windows Client or a set-top box and remote control, identify yourself to the system by entering your PIN number.

2.Choose your title or prepared lesson from the menus or search for title, subject or key words. When using the remote control, key words can be entered from the number keypad in the same way as SMS on a mobile phone.

3.Once you select a title, it will be available to you immediately. You access it with DVD-style controls.

4.Once finished, log out to prevent unauthorised use.

Lesson preparation

From a PC, other types of material such as images, PPT presentations and music can be uploaded to the system, stored against a registered user’s name and accessed as part of a lesson.

Acquisition and Administration

Titles are added to the system using the Administration Tool. This is a Windows application that allows the system administrator to assign users to the system, establish access rules and levels and manage acquisitions.

The DVC Marcom Digital Capture Server allows you to make immediate or timer recordings from analogue sources such as off-air TV or videotape, controlled by the Administration Tool. Once a recording has been made it is stored initially on the Capture Server where it may be edited prior to being transferred to a Storage Server.

DVC Marcom Digital Features

Digital Video Commander (DVC) is an easy to use system for acquisition, storage and distribution of audiovisual material.

DVC Marcom Digital enables you to digitise, store, index, access and replay material in digital MPEG formats. Select MPEG-2 for DVD quality picture and sound and with DVC Marcom Digital you can also use MPEG 1 when digitising lower-quality material such as VHS tapes, for example.

Users can access material via either a Windows PC client or via a low-costset-top box and a TV or projector, using a Video Commander remote control.

DVC Marcom Digital is particularly suited to sites such as schools, universities, hospitals or anywhere a large number of people need on-demand access to audiovisual material.
