DVS ProntoXway at Centro in Hong Kong

Centro Digital Pictures in Hong Kong started to use the Asia Pacific Region’s first DVS ProntoXway from DVS Digital Video Systems AG. The post house is utilizing the multi-channel disk recorder for the implementation of 3D applications and high-resolution presentations.

DVS is reporting another successful sale in Asia. The ProntoXway multi-channel disk recorder has been implemented at Centro in Hong Kong to offer the post production house ideal conditions for expanding its product portfolio. Centro is the first Asian customer to have installed the flexible DVS multi-channel disk recorder.

The DVS disk recorder enables the post house to create perfect images using uncompressed data material. With ProntoXway, the editors at Centro are now able to process image data in real time and prepare it for playback. With two video channels, the playback of stereoscopic content is easily possible using only a single DVS system.

Thanks to its 2K option, the ProntoXway is a future-proof piece of equipment and supports Centro’s plans for the intensification of 2K workflows. Especially when realizing 2K projects, Centro benefits from the reliability and the real-time features of the DVS disk recorder.

Hon Fung, Senior Engineer at Centro, said: "DVS disk recorders enjoy an excellent reputation. With its reliability, ease of use, and ability to play back stereoscopic images, ProntoXway offers us exactly the features that we need."

Eric Augereau, Sales Director at DVS, added: "We are happy to have installed Asia’s first ProntoXway at Centro. With ProntoXway, Centro now owns a future-proof system that is ideally suited for Centro’s 3D projects."
