• Inputs: Four configurable inputs on BNCs for RGBHV up to 1600x1200, component video up to 1080p/60 HDTV, S-video, or composite video; one configurable input on BNCs for component video, S-video, or composite video; one input on a 4-pin mini-DIN and a BNC for S-video or composite video, respectively; and optional SDI - MGP 462D
• Output: Scaled picture-in-picture output on configurable 15-pin HD and BNC connectors as RGBHV, RGBS, RGsB, or component video
• RGB and HDTV component video output — Scaled picture-in-picture video is simultaneously output through configurable BNC and 15-pin HD connectors as RGBHV, RGBS, RGsB, or component video.
• Selectable output rates from 640x480 to 1400x1050, including HDTV 720p/60
• Picture-in-picture adjustments for window positioning, sizing, zoom, and priority; background and window border color selection
• Graphic Still Store enables use of screen captures or uploaded graphics as background images — A powerful feature that enables screen captures of the current output, or uploaded BMP bitmap graphics, to be stored in memory. Images stored on the MGP 462 can be downloaded to a PC as BMP files for archiving.
• Background images can be used to create themed multimedia presentations — An image stored in the Graphic Still Store memory can be displayed as a background to the two video or graphic windows, creating a themed multimedia presentation. The unit can store up to four full screen high resolution images, offering an easy way to display frequently used images such as a company logo.
• Window transition effects including dissolves, wipes, and cuts — Windows can be transitioned into and out of the image using dissolves, wipes, and simple cuts, resulting in smooth, professional presentations.
• Auto-Image™ setup — The MGP 462 automatically optimizes the image to the scaled output rate, eliminating complex set-up procedures.
• Input freeze control — Any input to a picture-in-picture window can be frozen via the front panel, RS-232 or RS-422 control, or Ethernet control.
• Text overlay for window caption labeling — Each picture-in-picture window can be labeled with a text label of up to 16 characters, generated through RS-232 or RS-422 control or Ethernet control. Custom options are available for text positioning, text color, character size, translucent or color-selectable background, and text border.
• Picture controls for each window, including color, tint, brightness, contrast, and detail
• 25 memory presets for PIP window configurations — A total of 25 default memory presets are available, each with factory-loaded picture-in-picture window configurations. These configurations can be customized to allow quick saving and recall of size, positioning, and priority for both windows, and can also recall a previously stored background image.
• 3:2 NTSC and 2:2 PAL pulldown detection — Advanced film mode processing techniques help maximize image detail and sharpness for NTSC or PAL sources that originated from film.
• Quad standard video decoding — The MGP 462 uses a digital, four-line adaptive comb filter to decode NTSC 3.58, NTSC 4.43, PAL, and SECAM for integration into systems worldwide.
• Internal test patterns for calibration and set-up — The MGP 462 offers 12 test patterns, including a crop pattern, crosshatch, 16 bar grayscale, color bars, alternating pixels, ramp, 4 x 4 crosshatch for use with video walls, three film aspect ratio patterns - 1.78, 1.85, and 2.35, and crop patterns for setting up side-by-side windows. It also features a blue-only mode for proper setup of video color and tint levels.
• Ethernet monitoring and control — Enables the MGP 462 to be controlled and proactively monitored over a LAN, WAN, or the Internet.
• RS-232 and RS-422 control port — Using serial commands, the MGP 462 can be controlled and configured via the Extron Windows®-based control program, or integrated into a control system.
