Ensemble Designs BE-92M Specifications

BrightEye 92-M

HD Downconverter

BrightEye 92-M will downconvert any type of HD signal and
provides both an SD SDI output and an analog composite
output that are suitable for broadcast or monitoring. A
special Mirror Output Mode can be enabled, causing the
output image to be ipped left to right for use with on­camera talent. The built-in Frame Synchronizer allows
you to feed asynchronous signals to the BrightEye 92-M.
An external reference input allows genlock to a house
reference.

All vertical interval data and closed captioning is faithfully
passed. Sixteen channels of embedded audio are
supported. If the incoming video has embedded audio, the
audio will be safely bypassed around the video processing
and lipsync will be preserved.

Audio monitoring is easy with BrightEye 92-M’s convenient

3.5 mm mini jack. Just select the audio channels you want
to monitor from the front panel and plug in a headset.

The HDMI connector on the rear of the unit provides a future
proof monitoring interface. Plug it into most LCD monitors
for condence monitoring of your feed.

Input selection, gain control, and test pattern controls are
provided through the front panel interface. Audio presence
LEDs indicate which channels are detected. Controls for
crop, letterbox and pillarbox are accessed from the front
panel or BrightEye Mac or PC software.
