Slomo.tv's Red Arrow and BlackJack slow-motion servers will be unveiled at next week's NAB show in Las Vegas
Slomo.tv will use NAB to premiere two full 4K replay and slow-motion servers, Red Arrow and BlackJack 4K.
Red Arrow offers four channels recording, four channels search and two channels playback with six 4K physical video ports, in 4K 50p, in a single 2RU enclosure. BlackJack 4K offers three in, three search and two out in 4K 50p/4K 60p in a single 4RU enclosure.
Red Arrow can also be used for six-channel 4K 50p recording for non-linear editing. Due to its four graphical ports Red Arrow allows four operators to work on one machine simultaneously. For example, two operators can work with configuration 662 (six recording, six search and two replay channels), the other two with configuration 442 (four recording, four search and two replay channels). While working on one machine, each operator has their own display that can function as the main interface or in multiviewer mode.
The system interface has a built-in multiviewer that provides monitoring of input and output signals and search through four channels using one standard 1920x1080 monitor. With an SSD based array, Red Arrow provides for storage of 266 hours 100Mbit HD video. The built-in DMR SATA slots can accommodate nine 3.5" SATA drives that can record 18 channels in ProRes 422 and 18 Proxy SD channels or 24 channels DVCPro HD with SD Proxy.
The Red Arrow can be operated as a stand-alone unit and does not need any additional soft- or hardware.
In 3G or HD the Red Arrow can operate with 20 channels recording and replays, while it provides four physical outputs. When Red Arrow runs in 3G / HD mode, the server offers 20 channels of 3G.
Slomo.tv's BlackJack 4K is a three in, two out 4K 50p server. With the brand new BlackJack 3G, 16 channels of 3G can be recorded, and up to three operators can edit four channels (slomo and highlights) with independent crossfade outputs – or the Blackjack can work as a 5-channel 4K 50p slow-motion machine.
12TB SSD, enough to record 266 hour of HD at 100 Mbit/s, are already on board. On all 12 input channels DMR is available. The BlackJack 4K can also search and mark clips on three 4K 50p channels simultaneously (during continuous recording) and deliver two channels of 4K 50p with the ability to fade between two separate signals.
For viewing recorded material BlackJack integrates with standard full HD monitors for displaying the interface with built-in multiviewer. BlackJack supports a large set of codecs: MJPEG, ProRes 422, DVCPro HD, AVID DNxHD, XDCAM 50Mbit, MPEG2, MPEG4, H264, DVCPro50, DVCProHD, DV25, IMX and containers natively compatible with Apple Final Cut, Avid, Adobe Premiere, GVG Canopus.

NAB Show in Las Vegas will see the world premiere of two new 4K 50/60p slow-motion replay servers. The RED ARROW and BlackJack 4K by Slomo.tv push the boundaries of slow-motion replay servers even further.
RED ARROW
With a single 2RU enclosure RED ARROW is the most powerful replay and slow-motion server in the world. RED ARROW offers simultaneously 4 channels recording, 4 channels search and 2 channels playback with six 4K physical video ports – all in 4K 50/60p. It can also be used for 6 channel 4K recording for non-linear editing. For 4K video interchange Apple ProRes 422 is used.
RED ARROW has 24 reversible 3G/HD SDI video ports: Due to its 4 graphical ports RED ARROW allows for 4 operators working on one machine together at the same time. For example, two operators work with configuration 662 (6 recording, 6 search and 2 playback channels), the other two with configuration 442 (4 recording, 4 search and 2 playback channels). While working on one machine, simultaneously each operator has its own display that can function as main interface or multiviewer.
Unlike competing products, that offer maximum 4 channel recording + PRV and PGM, RED ARROW is a true game changer in the field of high-end servers and offers functionalities never dreamed of before.
The system interface has a built-in multiviewer that provides monitoring of input and output signals and search using one standard 1920×1080 computer monitor. The SSD based RED ARROW provides storage of 266 hours 100Mbit HD video. The built-in DMR SATA slots can accommodate nine (9) 3.5" SATA drives that can record 18 channels in ProRes 422 and 18 Proxy SD channels or 24 channels DVCPro HD with SD Proxy.
The RED ARROW operates as a stand-alone unit and unlike others does not need any additional hardware.
RED ARROW offers various interfaces for the integration with other production environments, for instance two 10 GbE interfaces.
BlackJack 4K
With this 3 recording, 3 search and 2 playback in 4K 50p/60p server again the manufacturer underlines its ambition to be one step ahead of the competition. BlackJack in 3G/HD mode provides up to 30 channels (12 recording, 12 search and 6 playback). Up to 3 replay operators can work on 4 different channels each (slomo and highlights) with independent crossfade outputs.
Unique to the BlackJack 4K is its capability to search and mark clips on 3 4K channels simultaneously and to playback 2 channels 4K with FX.
For monitoring 4K BlackJack uses standard computer monitors for displaying the interface with built-in multiviewer – so there is no need for several 4K / 4x3G SDI monitors.
Its SSD storage is big enough to record 266 hrs. 100 Mbit/s HD.
DMR™ is available on all 12 input channels. Slomo.tv offers this unique technology capable to write NLE native files of all channels live during recording, thus providing all content without delay for further processing.
BlackJack 4K supports a large set of codecs: MJPEG, ProRes 422, DVCPro HD, AVID DNxHD, XDCAM 50Mbit, MPEG2, MPEG4, H264, DVCPro50, DVCProHD, DV25, IMX and containers natively compatible with Apple Final Cut, Avid, Adobe Premiere, GVG Canopus. All slomo.tv servers are delivered with a specialised console with push-buttons, T-Bar and Jog/Shuttle, mouse and keyboard.

The video system integrates with official game information, including timings, in accordance with FIBA requirements.
New high-tech basketball video judging systems are taking their place courtside in international basketball, with word that the Lithuanian Basketball League / Lietuvos krepšinio lyga (LKL) is now using five new videoReferee®-B systems from Slomo TV.
Slomo.tv produces broadcast replay servers and video judging platforms for live sports productions, and its main videoReferee® system can be specially configured for different applications and specific conditions, such as those laid down for basketball by international sporting agency FIBA.
LKL currently holds fourth place in FIBA’s ranking of men’s basketball.
The new videoReferee®-B meets all major FIBA-specific requirements, the manufacturer reports: full compliance with league regulations, system integration with facility scoreboard controllers; the ability to display the video judging playback process on a big screen; all in a compact footprint with reasonable pricing. As well, the system integrates with official game information, including timings, in accordance with FIBA requirements.
The video judging system supports four SD or HD cameras, connected via the SDI or HDMI interface. It is based on the 2U short Arrow platform, which makes it easy to transport. The system provides HDD storage for 50 hours of HD broadcast quality video and can work with one or two monitors. Its multiskin function allows comfortable operation using a single monitor in a confined space.
The referee’s interface via HDMI output can be displayed on a big screen or provide a signal to TV broadcasters using HDMI to SDI converter. vR controllers are connected via USB interface.
The 3.5" SATA rack allows storing exported materials on standard 3.5" SATA drives.
A more compact and mobile video judging system from Slomo can be used in any sport not needing integration with scoreboard or timing devices.
videoReferee® Jr. comes in two versions: 2 and 4 channels, both with a multi-skin function for switching between engineering and referee's interfaces.
videoReferee® Jr. can be used for recording the entire event as well as for analysis of controversial moments. The operator/judge can search video for a questionable moment at any time for on-the-spot analysis and decision making.
The system’s remote control provides such functions as camera selection, event marking, viewing in real time or searching of recorded material, quad or single channel view, zoomed image. Events can be marked live or while viewing recorded video.
The system allows exporting marked events to DVD or .mp4 file, and also exporting the entire event in MPEG-2 or MPEG-4 format from selected cameras.
SLOMO.TV develops HD/3G/4K SSD based multichannel recording and instant replay systems for live video production.
