Imagine Gets Data Off SxS Cards Fast with ShotPut EXpressImagine Products now offers ShotPut EXpress, an automated offload application for EX SxS cards used with Sony’s XDCAM HD EX cameras. It’s available for both Macintosh and Windows computers. The new software allows the secure backup of Sony XDCAM HD EX-based video projects while streamlining the workflow from acquisition to archive. The product features single-card (manual) and multiple-card (auto) modes.Users insert their SxS card into a MacBook Pro or notebook PC’s ExpressCard slot. The ShotPut EXpress makes secure, verified copies of the SxS card’s video contents (the BPAV folder) in up to three locations. The company said ShotPut EXpress also makes a printable activities report log of all the file transfer activities. This text file shows all the details, including names of cards and files, the copy destination names, file sizes, duration of each transfer and aggregate transfer time, date, etc. After offloading is finished, the unit automatically erases the BPAV folder contents and renames the card so it’s ready to return to the camera. To ensure file integrity, the software can verify byte-to-byte comparisons of media copies. The system prevents overwriting of existing folders and duplicate offloading of the same card. During transfer, a progress bar displays overall percent completion and file-by-file progress during the copy process. The BPAV contents of any mountable volume (drive) can be copied. ShotPut EXpress is a single user-downloadable application. The cost is $49.00. Download at http://www.imagineproducts.com. |
