DESCRIPTION
Benefits - Capture all the action with synchronized, continuous recording and display of up to three video streams
- Replace three HD decks at a fraction of the cost
- Deliver slow motion instant replays as soon as recording begins without interrupting capture
- Organize replays in separate lists using color coding to easily distinguish teams, players, game periods, event types, highlights and more
- Play back key elements at variable speeds from multiple camera angles to give the viewer a comprehensive look at all the action
- Quickly export highlight reels of selected video segments including an edit decision list for rapid turn-around
- Replay pristine HD footage in 1080i or 720p as well as component, Y/C and composite SD in 4:3 or 16:9
- Multi-standard version supports both NTSC and PAL
- Choose from two output modes. 1-Out mode allows the 3PLAY operator to send a switched replay from multiple camera angles to the switcher. 3-Out mode allows the operator to control the playback speed while the switcher is fed all three outputs allowing the director to choose the camera angle.
- Record three isolated cameras (ISO) simultaneously providing the ability to edit the event in post for maximum flexibility and functionality

WHAT IS 3PLAY?
3PLAY™ is a multi-channel, HD/SD, instant replay slow motion solution. 3PLAY is a standalone hardware device that provides simultaneous recording and display of up to three video streams with audio. 3PLAY outputs three (synchronized) video streams to a live broadcast switcher and is capable of sending live video, delayed video or selected replays. DOES 3PLAY RECORD AUDIO WITH EACH INPUT?
Yes. Each input will capture four audio channels in either analog or digital audio. Digital Audio can be in AES or SDI embedded formats. DOES 3PLAY ALWAYS RECORD A CONTINUOUS STREAM?
Yes. All three inputs are captured in a single file. From that file, a highlight reel can be generated and exported along with an edit decision list (EDL) for post production and editing. There are also tools integrated in 3PLAY to backup and restore the entire project, with markers. IS 3PLAY PORTABLE?
With dimensions of only 8.5"x10.5"x17" and weighing in at just 20 pounds, 3PLAY easily qualifies as airline carry-on gear. IS 3PLAY NATIVE HD?
3PLAY supports 720p and 1080i SDI or component High Definition video. Unlike other devices that refer to “HD compatible," 3PLAY supports full High Definition throughout its entire pipeline. 480i or 576i composite, Y/C, component or SDI Standard Definition video, is also supported in 4:3 or 16:9. IS THERE A CONTROLLER SURFACE?
Yes. 3PLAY includes the 3P-10, a full-featured desktop control surface. In production, the only need for the keyboard would be to add replay comments or create a new session name. WHAT ARE THE 3PLAY PLAYBACK SPEEDS?
3PLAY is designed to play back at any speed from 0 to 100% and, if using the shuttle control, this expands to +/- 600%. There are also buttons on the 3P-10 control surface to instantly select replays at 25%, 33%, 50%, 75% or 100% speed. WHAT IS THE 3PLAY STORAGE CAPACITY?
As a general guideline, 3PLAY can store more than 11 hours of up to three HD video channels and up to 12 audio channels. While 3PLAY video compression can vary slightly, the quality remains constant to ensure visual fidelity at all times. Frames containing a high amount of detail may consume more disk space. CAN I RECORD TO EXTERNAL DRIVES?
To ensure recording integrity, replays can only be captured to the internal hard drive. Once recording ends, those clips can be copied across a network or to a USB drive. HOW CAN I HAVE MORE THAN THREE CHANNELS OF SLOW MOTION REPLAY?
You can run multiple 3PLAY units, but each one will need its own operator. WHAT IS THE AUDIO/VIDEO FORMAT?
Video is compressed using MPEG-2, constant quality, variable bitrate (VBR), I-Frame only. Audio is uncompressed and sampled at 48 kHz with, 24-bit precision. ARE THESE FILES COMPATIBLE WITH OTHER SYSTEMS?
Yes. The exported MPEG-2 video clips will play in all professional NLEs. IS THERE GENLOCK IN?
Yes. NewTek recommends that 3PLAY and all connected inputs are genlocked to the same reference signal. As 3PLAY is HD native, there is full support for both tri-level and regular sync sources.
