Thomson Grass Valley released the K2 Dyno replay controller. The compact, cost-effective next-generation controller coupled with the new K2 Summit production client is designed to help sports producers and other professionals capture live events in crystal-clear HD resolutions and instantly play them out at variable speeds for critical analysis during fast-paced events. It is ideally suited for HD sports production trucks and shared storage production facilities.

The new K2 Dyno replay controller features a highly intuitive user interface which includes the Thomson Grass Valley T-bar, switcher-quality buttons, a touch-screen LCD, plus high-speed GigE networking and is designed to work seamlessly with the new Thomson Grass Valley K2 Summit production client also introduced at IBC 2008. For larger operations, the controller can operate as a dedicated client within the IT-centric Thomson Grass Valley MediaFrame metadata architecture. This ability allows users to gain access to all of the information about a specific clip through the K2 Dyno replay controller for fast and easy recall.

With the K2 Dyno replay controller, users can import and export MXF, QuickTime, and GXF (SMPTE 360M) files directly using any USB device.
