DDR

The Synchromesh DDR is a turn-key upgrade from an HD VTR or DDR. It runs a show hardened Linux system, boots fast and plays Quicktime movies using a wide range of codecs, or records to a removable SATA hard disk

Turbine

Synchromesh Turbine is our 'mini' solution. It's a small, rugged package, but plays out mildly compressed video with the quality and flexibility of it's older brother, the Synchromesh DDR. Turbine works on MeshNet, can play in sync with other units, and receives all it's commands from other units or MeshShift, or external control (TCP/IP).

Turbine offers the power of Synchromesh playback, with less footprint in your machine room - and wallet! Team it with DDRs or Octane to get the most power.

Octane

Synchromesh Octane turns an ordinary computer - or an extraordinary one, you choose - into am HD capable recording station. Record video, transcode and compress on the fly, and if you have a Mesh, automatically share the files with all units at startling speed. Currently supports Macs with OS X Leopard.

Octane also works as a single channel player to review content, or play to a single destination.

Spark

Synchromesh Spark is a software application to run fullscreen video on a single computer with transitions and simple but powerful clip lists - replacing DVD, VTR or DDR playback

Utilities

MeshShift

MeshShift is an easy to use application you can install on a computer of your choice to control Synchromesh channels (excepting Spark). MeshShift mimics the appearance of the Synchromesh DDR front panel, so there's nothing else to learn, and it can access the full power of the system: controlling any channel, changing settings, importing and exporting media

Utilities

Every Synchromesh DDR includes a Utility app that can quickly boot into a simple environment to offer basic system repair and configuration utilties, such as RAID drive formatting, or system upgrades

Remote

Synchromesh can be triggered from a user panel or from various remote methods. If there are multiple channels in a 'mesh' then any number can be controlled from any interface method.

Each Synchromesh unit will allow a remote TCP/IP connection and present a MeshScript terminal. MeshScript is a simple 'English-like' scripting languages, so the user can enter commands such as playClip(); simply by typing them, but can also send complete scripts, using complex logic, variables, and queries.

Each Synchromesh unit can also allow up to 4 'protocol' connections, into which a pre-defined MeshScript script is loaded. These scripts, supplied by us or the community or you can make Synchromesh respond to any standard protocol, such as Betacam, Midi Show Control or even DMX (via ArtNet, for example). When bridged to serial ports or other interfaces, they extend the control options considerably. Note that you can adjust a protocol to control any number of channels.

For the Synchromesh operator, we provide MeshShift, an application that can be run on Mac, Windows or Linux and provides an external panel to your Synchromesh system. It also allows importing of media (to a Pro channel, and from there onto the whole mesh) and manipulation of MeshScripts and all settings. Using MeshShift, you never need to touch other Synchromesh channels.

Synchromesh offers a range of digital playback solutions for event or installation use, using cutting edge GPU-based video processing.
