Casablanca Prestige

 
Casablanca Prestige is the new, smart production solution for digital video editing. Make your video the finest - without external, additional equipment and totally without a PC or PC experience.

DV port and Direct-DV mode as standard:

Casablanca Prestige features two DV or i-Link in/out ports. This allows you to directly record and output data from and to a digital camcorder or digital VCR. Without further conversion, all data is recorded to the internal hard-drive - this means excellent picture quality. In addition, you can of course use analog material in your projects. Record your finished project to either analog recorders or directly onto digital tape using the DV ports.

DVD-writer and DVD DICON

Create your own DVDs using the integrated DVD-writer, and thanks to DVD DICON, video data can be converted to the DVDs video format in real time. A hardware supported MPEG-2 compression makes this possible, resulting in a conversion time that is up to 20 times faster than on PCs. The DVDs can be used on nearly all available DVD players.  Click here for more information on Prestige and DVD authoring with Arabesk.


Flexibility thanks to front inputs and removable 80GB hard-drive.

The front inputs simplify capturing video from your camera to Casablanca Prestige tremendously. The removable hard-drive allows for limitless expandable capacity.

Casablanca Prestige features a SmartMedia-drive. This Smart Media cards have a capacity of between 4 and 128 MB. and are considerably faster than floppy-disks, making for lightning fast software updates.
