The core of VCD Studio board is Winbond (Zapec) chip that carries out the entire image compression and motion estimation task during real time video digitizing thus enabling the design of low cost MPEG1 video compression hardware. Simultaneous and synchronous real time audio compression is performed using the onboard MPEG encoding DSP chip.
VCD Studio user interface software allows you to capture SIF or QSIF
resolution video and stereo audio. It produces elementary MPEG video,
audio or system layer (synchronized video/audio) streams in real time.
The input video source can be viewed before and during capture through
a realistic WYSIWYG preview window.
