Fast Forward Video, Inc.'s (FFV) next generation Omega Deck digital video recorder is set to hit the market later this year, sometime in Q3. Intended for broadcast and film production applications, the double-duty DVR records in both HD and SD video, and allows upsampling to HD.

Offering near-perfect image quality thanks to its high-quality JPEG2000 wavelet compression (up to 100Mb/s), the Omega HD delivers clean images which are nearly indistinguishable from the original. Available in single or dual tuner models, users can store multiple HD and SD video files, edit video, create loops and clips, and insert graphics. Other key features include an intuitive front panel touch screen, standard 2.5" SATA drive, simultaneous playback and record, and RS-422. The Omega HD is also compatible with Grass Valley REV® Pro removable media.
