OSEE will be showcasing a full range of LCD monitors at IBC with a particular highlight being the low end monitor from the LMW series that is making its debut at the show.

OSEE also said that both models are priced competitively and include features found in OSEE’s other LCD monitor series, including waveform and vector scope display, dynamic UMD and Tally support. The LMW-200 and the
LMW-230 ship with two SDI inputs and loop out. In addition, they also support one composite input, one Y/C and YPbPr input as well as DVI-I/HDMI input.
In a similar format, OSEE
also offers the MVM200 and MVM230 from the MVM series as a total table-top solution, ideal in situations where a quad split monitor is needed. 10.D59

solutions that maximise the value of content, we had no hesitation in selecting this system to meet our requirements as Thailand furthers its move towards digitisation.”

Ericsson solution that includes the E5710 MPEG-2 SD encoder, Ericsson RX8200 receivers and the CE-Encoder by Ericsson to enable the reliable exchange of video between central and regional sites in the country. 1.D61
