A single operator can easily mark, cue, and replay clips while managing other elements of the production. Simply register events as clips with button taps while recording and then instantly play them back with dedicated panel switches.
With its onboard color display, the P-20HD makes it simple to manage and execute your workflow in real time. In recording view, the screen shows the current video input plus critical SD card information, such as recording duration, remaining storage space, and available time. In playback view, you can display cropped previews of all video clips for live replay or compilation into playlists.
Filled with single-task hardware controls, the P-20HD provides an efficient hands-on experience. Dedicated transport buttons include play, pause, forward, rewind, mark in, and mark out. A jog/shuttle wheel with optical encoding allows precise, fluid control to scrub clips for replay and editing, while the T-bar lets you adjust the playback speed. Engaging the Speed Range function enables ultra-fine control, suitable for focusing in on tight action and contested plays.
After the action is over, use the media playlist builder to aggregate clips into curated pro videos, ready for distribution and sharing on your favorite platform. Celebrate the best moments of a game on social media or distribute practice and training sessions to coaches and players for further evaluation.
Stereo audio input/output is supported via embedded HDMI and analog RCA jacks, and a headphone jack allows for signal monitoring. Onboard EQ, limiter, and delay effects are also available to enhance the sound and eliminate audio and video sync issues.
The P-20HD records natively in H.264, one of the most universally supported file formats available. H.264 maintains high quality even at low bit rates, providing excellent video at reduced file sizes. All the most popular online video platforms accept H.264 format, letting you upload files created on the P-20HD with no conversion steps in between. (For maximum recording stability, the P-20HD automatically divides the recording file every three minutes.)
The P-20HD is ready with the most-requested instant replay features today and a roadmap for future capabilities that include: RS-232/LAN support, control via external footswitches, video file export, and live annotation and drawing overlay via an optional tablet device and stylus.
