The Blackmagic Design UltraStudio Mini Replay 12G is a compact capture and playback solution for Thunderbolt™ computers that's perfect for broadcast graphics, AI image processing and live action replay! It connects using a single Thunderbolt cable and provides both capture and playback. There's both a fill and key output for keying graphics in switchers, plus a separate output for monitoring. UltraStudio Mini Replay 12G has multi-rate 12G-SDI connections which support HD for broadcast video use as well as the latest Ultra HD video standards up to 2160p60.
Get News Editing and Replay in DaVinci Resolve!
The DaVinci Resolve cut page has exciting editing, media player and replay features. DaVinci Resolve handles virtually any video file format, so you can play any files your client gives you! For broadcast graphics, DaVinci Resolve can play video files that have an alpha channel, and they will be output as a 10-bit SDI fill and key. Plus the new multi source viewer allows visual media browsing, so that any clips that match in time will be displayed in a multi-view. New "on air" controls allow the key output to enable the downstream keyer in a switcher, so a single button can automate the play-out to air. DaVinci can even add an automatic stinger! It's the perfect solution for news and replay!
Extremely Fast Thunderbolt Connection
All UltraStudio Mini models include fast Thunderbolt 4 with video capture and playback plus power, all over a single Thunderbolt cable. Thunderbolt 4 provides massive data speeds, giving enough bandwidth to handle high resolutions, deeper bit depths and advanced frame buffer formats such as 4:2:2:4 and 4:4:4:4. It even supports real time conversion of alpha channels out to 10-bit 12G-SDI fill and key outputs. UltraStudio Mini uses the DeckLink API, so almost all video software works. Plus the Thunderbolt link is bidirectional, so the UltraStudio Mini Replay 12G model can capture, process and output video in real time. This means computers can be used as real time graphics or AI processors!
Connections and Features for Replay and Processing!
The UltraStudio Mini Replay 12G model is more powerful because it has both capture and playback. All with a single Thunderbolt connection! There's dedicated 12G-SDI fill and key outputs that are connected to a switcher's downstream keyer which can be muted so video won't key on the switcher until the replay starts. An extra 12G-SDI output is dedicated to monitoring so you have an output that's always active so you can setup the next replay. There's also a 12G-SDI video input that's perfect for live monitoring the switcher multi-view. You could even render broadcast graphics or AI processing over a live video input because UltraStudio Mini Replay 12G is bi-directional!
