The T2™ HD iDDR is the latest addition to the Grass Valley family of Intelligent Digital Disk Recorders (iDDRs). The iDDR is a new class of VTR replacement that leverages the digital storage, networking, and media-management capabilities of our Emmy Award-winning video servers.

The T2 intelligent digital disk recorder (iDDR) brings full high-definition capture and playback to the video professional. Additionally, the T2 HD iDDR works with standard-definition video and may be controlled from other production devices such as the Indigo A/V mixer.

The T2 iDDR is a complete and self-contained SD and HD audio/video playout center. The front-panel transport controls are designed to look and feel very much like those of traditional VTRS and it's two output channels support standard or high-definition content. The crisp, clear LCD front panel can display high-quality images and is complemented by a software applications suite for managing and selecting media clips, clip editing and trimming, and playout including playlist creation.

Featuring extensive rear-panel audio/video connectivity, the T2 HD iDDR can also accept files via USB 2.0 or by data transfer over a standard gigabit Ethernet network. The T2 HD iDDR also accepts media from other applications, including HQAVI, MPEG-2, Quicktime, and Windows Media Video HD files. WIth the T2 iDDR, users can exhange content at a high speed over a network or via removable media, such as SSD through USB, FireWire (IEEE 1394), or the dedicated 2.5 inch HDD/SSD slot. Further, the T2 iDDR can be controlled by our Indigo A/V mixer - which combines features normally found in video production switchers, presentation mixers, and audio mixers - to creat a powerful presentation system. The T2 iDDR has also been engineered to seamlessly integrate with Grass Valley EDIUS nonlinear editing software.
