Transvideo StarliteHD-m “Metadator” Full package (ARRI, RED, SONY, PANASONIC, BMC)

Overview

The Starlite ARRI-WVS 5″ AMOLED Screen with Built-In Wireless Receiver from Transvideo is compatible with ARRI Transmitters and was designed specifically to work with your ALEXA SXT-W camera. It offers a display resolution of 1280 x 720 and brightness of 380 cd/m². The Starlite ARRI WVS records in H.264 and provides 3G/HD/SD-SDI input and output. Additional features include SD card recording, playback, a snapshot feature, image flip, reverse mode, PDF-report generation, and 1.3x and 2x anamorphic de-squeeze functions. Peaking and a 1:1 pixel-to-pixel zoom can be used to check your focus. Display tools include a zoom zone, and smart corner-assignable waveform, histogram, and vectorscope functions.

Metadata Reports

Despite of its small form factor, the StarliteHD-m is an advanced electronic toolbox:

This remarkable monitor provides the necessary tools, whatever the job or the requirement:
For the focus puller (zoom, peaking, focus puller view),
For the script assistant (record/playback, metadata view, PDF report),
For the user of stabilized equipment (virtual horizon),

But the essential power of the StarliteHD-m resides in its ability to gather information from the different smart devices it is connected to :
Metadata transmitted through the SDI signal,
Camera information through the Ethernet link,
Lens metadata through Cooke /i or Zeiss eXtended serial link

Lens file and post production

Recent developments of lenses give access to critical information: shading, distortion map, inertial data or illumination tables that are available through a direct serial connection.
Basic informations are often available through the camera mount and transferred to the HD-SDI output but the advanced data, necessary for the post production and special FX must be collected directly from the lens.

The StarliteHD-m is the missing link – It agregates data from lenses and cameras.
Files are generated onto a SD card and are immediately available to be processed through the plugins developped by the lens manufacturer, providing a non-negligible gain of time. No need of complicated software to do that.

A set of cables is all you need to recover the lens data

• HD-SDI BNC cable
• Basic lens information provided by Cooke /i, LDS (Arri)
• Camera information from RDD18 (Sony) or ARRI protocol.
• Lens Reader™
• Cooke /i3, /i², /i and Zeiss eXtended basic and advanced metadata.
• Ethernet cable

Manufacturing quality

The StarliteHD-m housing is extremely rugged, machined in aviation-grade aluminium
A wide range of accessories is planned, from battery support to detachable sun hood and more.
