18. Sony, XtenDD35,
Odetics & VDCP
Protocols
These protocols allow the XT server to be controlled by external devices.
The Sony BVW75 protocol allows the server to be seen as a VTR by the
controlling device. On a playback channel, all usual transport commands
(play, play var, pause, goto timecode, pause, stop, etc…) are supported.
On a record channel, only Rec and Stop commands are supported.
This protocol is the simplest one but does not support clip management.
It should be used when the controlling device does not support the
XtenDD35, Odetics or Louth VDCP protocols (ex : edit controllers, NLE
applications, some video switchers, VTR controllers, etc.)
The XtenDD35 protocol is based on the Sony BVW75 protocol for all
standard transport commands. It has extended commands so that it
supports clip management : using this protocol, the controlling device can
create, name, recall and delete clips.
This protocol can be used with Thomson/GVG XtenDD range of switchers,
and with DNF ST300-EVS and 4040CL-EVS controllers.
The Odetics protocol is based on the Sony BVW75 protocol for all
standard transport commands. It has extended commands so that it
supports clip and playlist management : using this protocol, the
controlling device can create, name, recall and delete clips, but it can
also manage playlists.
This protocol can be used with many different control devices and
automations software, including DNF ST300 and 4040CL controllers.
Non standard commands in Sony, XtenDD35 and Odetics protocols on
the play channel of an EVS server :
o REC : when a REC command is sent to a play channel, this
channel will return in E2E mode on its default record train. If
the default record channel associated to that player is
currently stopped, it will jump to the last recorded picture and
pause.
