ProductionVIEW HD-SDI MV
Overview:
The Vaddio™ ProductionVIEW HD-SDI MV
Production Switcher with integrated camera
controller and multiviewer is a powerful, cost
effective and easy to operate platform for live
presentation environments. With Vaddio’s
revolutionary TeleTouch™ Touch Screen Control
Panel (optional, sold separately), production
operators can easily see and switch all live video
feeds and create “video thumbnails” of preset
camera shots with the touch of their finger.
ProductionVIEW HD-SDI MV is a broadcast
quality 6 x 2 multi-format, seamless video mixer
that also provides two discrete outputs for dual
bus program feeds (two independent 6 x 1
switchers/mixers). Accepting any combination of

HD-SDI/SDI input signals from inputs 1 through 5
with Input 6 providing a DVI-I input, the
ProductionVIEW HD-SDI MV supports HD
resolutions up to and including 1080p/60fps.
The optional TeleTouch™ Touch Screen Control
Panel allows the camera operator to see and
switch all the live video feeds by simply touching
the windows that they want controlled. The
Vaddio TeleTouch Touch Screens are available in
two sizes; 18.5” rack-mount (7-RU) version or a
22” with base. Each camera input can have up to
12 stored “video thumbnails” of each preset
camera shot. These video thumbnail images
provide an easy way to identify and recall preset
camera positions.
