GMPT HDR Evie+

The greenMachine HDR Evie+ (Enhanced Video Image Engine), is a real-time segmented frame-by-frame broadcast-quality HDR to SDR converter and frame synchronizer for SDI formats up to 4K UHD (3840×2160). It is the world’s first system that uses an advanced algorithm for sectional dynamic tone mapping which automatically analyzes different sections of an image in the HDR stream and applies optimal corrections on a frame by frame basis in real-time. This unique capability is unlike any other solution today and is the perfect real-time production tool for sports or any live broadcast event needing high-quality real-time HDR to SDR conversions. HDR EVIE+ is best suited for the single native HDR workflow which can reduce costs on equipment and manual operations.

HDR EVIE+ provides 1x 4K/UHD processing channel or 4x 3G SDI channels which supports down-conversion from HDR to SDR through appropriate sectional dynamic tone mapping. It also supports Wide Color Gamut (WCG) to support the needs of broadcast and professional AV live event productions. The HDR Evie+ package also includes the “HDR Static” configuration for Static HDR <> SDR conversions, which performs static tone mapping to realize UP/Down/Cross conversions between HDR and SDR, this is better suited for studio enthronement or where the lighting conditions do not change drastically.

Input / Output Data Range
•  Full range : Video signal representation (10bits) in full range of values from 0 to 1023 decimal (according to ITU BT 2100)
•  Narrow range : Traditional video signal (10 bits)  representation from 64 to 940 decimal values

Dynamic Processing
•  Local Dynamic to Global Dynamic Ratio engine  allows a user to mix sectional tone mapping and global tone mapping proportionally
•  Global Dynamic to Static Ratio engine allows a user to mix dynamic tone mapping and static tone mapping proportionally
•  Dynamic adaptation speed engine (frame-by-frame) allows a user to adjust tone mapping calculation speed to get smooth and consistent viewing impression
•  Automated Scene Detection engine allows a user to adjust the parameter that detects a scene change for automated adjustment of image brightness levels
•  User-adjustable target brightness, contrast, and saturation

Other included features
•  Frame Synchronizer
•  Embedding /De-embedding with DolbyE™ embedding support
•  Basic Audio & Video Test Generator
•  Audio Processing with gain adjustment, mute, inversion, and stereo to mono mix-down
•  MetaData Management
•  Video Adjustments include saturation, gain, black and hue adjustment
•  RGB Color Corrector (Gain / Gamma / Lift and Offset)
•  Timing with available video and audio delay per channels is 30 frames and 1.3 seconds respectively
•  Nova controller with full SNMP v2 support and custom control

Each greenMachine is preloaded with all the available constellations (configurations). This package has the GMC-HDR-EVIE+ constellation installed and licensed. It also includes the HDR STATIC constellation which can be easily selected and the machine reconfigured. You can also freely load any of the available constellations (configurations) for testing and evaluation at any time, the video and audio will be watermarked until licensed. You can have multiple constellations licensed for the same machine and switching between configurations takes only a few seconds. Constellations can also be shared if you have more than one greenMachine on the network.
