FOR-A Insight 4-channel HD-SDI Server Player/Recorder

The FOR-A Insight FGP-400 Production Server is a highly versatile four-channel playout system designed for Studio and OB Van environments. Having wide range of supported wrappers and codecs makes Insight an excellent tool for media contribution and general video playout. The FGP-400 is configured with 4 HD-SDI channels. Optionally, all of them can be configured as a single 4K channel, plus, channels can be teamed for video + alpha output.

Insight has a full web interface that allows users to control the server from any device. User and group levels provide key aspects of the Insight security attributes, which brings confidence to media manipulation. However, a relaxed security mode is also available for a simplified operation for use within trusted environments. Different interface facets allow appropriate information to be exposed to different user roles. System video is streamed to web client instances to show actual content, allowing users to visualize and control Insight from a single computer screen.

Studios and production environments usually have complex interactions between an assorted set of devices, which are coordinated either through human interaction or proprietary links. Insight's flexible event processor can connect to multiple devices and enables interaction with video switchers, routing switchers, CG generators, GPIO connected devices and other studio equipment to orchestrate event triggering for a seamless production.

The Insight FGP-400 Production Server is a tool conceived for evolving infrastructures that require flexible file support, ease of use and event synchronization.
