About this item

The Grass Valley / Canopus Pegasus is a high-quality video capture system comprised of PCI Express hardware and software. Capable of accepting input from a variety of standard definition (SD) and high definition (HD) sources, including PC graphics and featuring a Canopus HQ hardware codec chip, Pegasus lets you preview, capture and store footage in pristine quality - perfect for archiving or delivering out via SD and HD mediums.

The Grass Valley / Canopus Pegasus is an easy-to-use solution for capturing video for use in demonstration and training videos. Pegasus' inputs include S-Video, YUV and RGB analog and HDMI, making it ready for today's range of video game consoles. With the included converter cable, you can also capture VGA output - ideal for creating tutorials of your software. But it doesn't end there, as Pegasus can also capture external two-channel analog audio and up to eight channels of embedded audio via HDMI.

The Grass Valley ProCoder 3 software combines speed and flexibility into a streamlined video conversion tool. Widely acknowledged as the world's leading software transcoder, it features extensive input/output options, advanced filtering, batch processing and an easy-to-use interface.

Whether encoding MPEG video for DVD production, producing Windows Media for streaming, or transcoding between NTSC and PAL, ProCoder software makes video format conversion quick and easy. With it you can encode a single source to multiple targets simultaneously, run multiple conversion jobs back-to-back in batch mode, or use drag-and-drop preset icons to start conversion with a single click.
