MOLINARE ENHANCES GRADING SUITE WITH OMNITEK GEAR
OmniTek’s XR image analysis system is specifically designed for
colorists and editors working in an HD environment. Features include an
"extreme resolution" waveform and vector displays for image analysis;
realtime color histogram displays in a variety of different gamuts; and
support for all 2K and dual-link input formats, with user-programmable
LUTs to correct for nonlinear inputs. XR also offers support for "XYZ"
color space inputs for users working in digital cinema.
“We generally require monitoring for RGB parade, picture viewing, a
vectorscope and PAL waveform,” explains Paul Sisley, technical
operations manager at Molinare. “The OmniTek scope gives us a multitude
of options to cater for this. The event/error logging system is very
configurable and can enable the operator to concentrate on editorial QC
decisions and then review the error log after viewing the pictures.”
Users can be confident that any technical faults with the video stream
have been logged and can be fixed before delivery. Sisley also says the
audio QC functions are particularly relevant with today’s multi-channel
delivery specs, including Dolby E.
