The EZ Logger Analog™ is the ideal high performance digital archiving system. The EZ Logger Analog is a real time, long term, multi channel archiving system with composite inputs. It outputs video in MPEG- 4 simple profile format, for higher picture quality at a very low bit rate. Its extensive (2 TB) storage capacity is designed to save "on air" programming for 30, 60 or more days to on-board hard drives. The hard drives can also be removed. The system stores material in separate 30, 60, or 120 minute files. The EZ Logger Analog simultaneously records up to four analog inputs. It is compatible with both PAL and NTSC. The user-friendly GUI makes it easy to set up, store, and retrieve broadcasts. Video clips can be located by date, time, or channel name. Selected files can be viewed locally or remotely over the network, with no interruption to the continuous encoding of the video program. File sizes can be determined in minutes for each channel. The average file size for 60 minutes does not exceed 350 MB, which can be easily transferred by FTP using a private network or public internet.
