7. 3025SW OPTIONS
7.1. INTERNAL MEDIA STORE
The 3025SW comes equipped with an internal media store. This internal media store comes with four
layers for static, animated, time, date, and temperature graphics. The internal media store also stores
audio .wav files. The four layers can be multi-layered; such that multiple graphics can be placed on top
of each other. For support for crawls and dynamic text graphics the +TXT option must be installed.
The 3025SW uses two types of memory to take a graphic or audio file to air. The 3025SW uses playout
cache to take the graphic or audio file to air. This memory is considered to be in-line memory and is
similar to DRAM on a PC. The playout cache temporally stores the graphic to use on air. If the graphic
is not on air, it will remain in the playout cache to be recalled later or until another graphic is called and
space is required on the playout cache. The 3025SW comes with a default of 2GB of playout cache.
This can be upgraded to 8GB with the factory installed option +PC8G.
The second memory type is compact flash or off-line memory. This is where the graphic and audio files
are stored. Graphic and audio files are loaded onto the compact flash from an external PC running
Overture Suite. The files are then transferred from the compact flash to playout cache when required.
The 3025SW has a 2GB compact flash as standard which can be upgraded to 8GB with the +CF8G
option.
Note: The NAS (Network Attached Storage) option is not currently available for the
3025SW
The graphic file formats that are supported by the 3025SW are: .PNG, .JPG, .GIF, .TGA, .TIF, .MOV,
and .AVI. The audio file format that is supported is .WAV files. Users use Overture Media Designer
import the files and convert them .EVL (Evertz Vector Logo) file format that is used by the 3025SW.
Users also use Overture Media Manager to load logos onto the 3025SW. Please refer to the Overture
Suite Users Manual on details on the creation and management of graphic and audio files on the
3025SW.
7.1.1. Storage Capacity of Playout Cache
Table 7-1 and Table 7-2 provide storage capacity information in regards to the maximum quantity and
maximum animation values for the available playout cache.
Note: The animation capacity is based on and calculated using 30 frames per second;
however, the 625 standard is calculated using 25 fps.
