Datavideo CG-300 Character Generator Software Kit with TC-200 Character Generator Kit

CG-300 HD Character Generator Software
The CG-350 and CG-300 are Windows-based character generators designed for live production and post production. The character generators are available primarily as a software+hardware combo that includes the CG-350/300 software and a Blackmagic Decklink HD Extreme 4K Card or Decklink SDI 4K Card. The PCI Card is meant for installation into a Windows-based PC. However, one can also purchase the CG-300 or CG-350 software ONLY (without PCI Card hardware). If a complete already-assembled CG computer is needed, look no further than their PCR-350/300 Workstation or the 1RURack-Mountable PCRM-350. The CG-300 includes the same basic text CG functions as the CG-350 but does NOT include the independent banner crawl and Snyper tools.

TC-200+CG-200 Character Generator Kit
Datavideo's CG-200 and TC-200: an innovative HD CG system for mobile broadcasting, live conferences and dynamic video presentations. Using a standard laptop, it enables users to create and deliver attractive on-screen graphics and titles in real-time. It is easy to operate, designed to be intuitive and responsive under the pressure of a live event. CG-200 and TC-200 works with standard Windows laptops with an HDMI interface and supports vision mixers with and without a DSK. Until now, real-time PC titling software has required an additional SDI adapter card to be fitted into a desktop PC. For live programming on location, a computer-based character generator can be problematic, in terms of the physical bulk of the PC, the need for an additional screen and the power requirement. CG-200 and TC-200 makes professional CG on the run a reality.

DSK mode
As software only, CG-200 and TC-200 can work with a vision mixer equipped with a DSK. In this mode, CG-200 and TC-200 can be set up as the key source or fill source. It can work with any vision mixer (such as the Datavideo SE-2800 and SE-3000) that has a downstream keyer (DSK).
