YouTube™ Video to Air Made Simple

BrightEye Mitto™ is a high performance scan converter that supports SD, HD and 3G video signals. For broadcasters who find they are relying on video content from the web, BrightEye Mitto offers the best way to take computer video to air. Video that once seemed constrained by your computer desktop can now be used for the most demanding broadcast and display applications.

Exclusive Filtering and Scaling Technology

A superior quality scan converter, BrightEye Mitto has the advantage of proprietary scaling technology and exclusive multi-tap filtering. The region selected for output determines if Mitto acts as an upconverter or downconverter. Even a small part of the computer screen, such as a YouTube video, will be upconverted to full HD. The filters automatically adjust in accordance with the conversion being performed.

Bringing progressive images from the desktop into the interlaced world of video used to be a compromise between sharp details versus interfield flicker. Mitto’s advanced filtering satisfies both of these seemingly contradictory requirements. The result is that the output looks as good, or better, than the original and passes the most stringent testing.

Digital and Analog Video and Audio

The intuitive front panel interface makes it easy to choose the desired video output format. Choices are 1.5 and 3 Gb/s HD SDI and SD SDI. Composite video is simultaneously output on a separate BNC. The genlock reference input allows the video outputs to be timed to house.

The audio input accepts either AES digital audio or analog audio. Audio is embedded into the SDI outputs which is required for many high-end applications.

Easy To Use

BrightEye PC and BrightEye Mac software let you simply use your mouse to click and drag over the specific portion of computer video that you want to output. The beauty of this user interface is that you can see which parts of the screen you don’t want to output, as well as the parts you do want to use. The perspective of seeing the whole screen gives you the ability to choose exactly which portion of the video you want to output. It’s easy to output the entire screen or just a selected portion.

From the software you also have complete and intuitive control of timing, video format, and video level adjustments. You can easily time BrightEye Mitto into a production switcher or router. Plus, presets enable you to store your favorite settings.

Click Use Your Mouse To Select What Will Be Output to Video

BrightEye PC/Mac software runs overtop of any video, website or software. The Selection Tool shows up as a black box around your selection and shows the portion of the video that will be output from BrightEye Mitto.

Resize the selection window by clicking and dragging with your mouse. Mitto’s video output automatically goes to pillar box or letter box as needed. Mitto maintains perfect aspect ratio.
