The 9992-ENC series now includes a built-in frame synchronizer that ensures the encoder keeps on running, either with a flat field or the last good frame, even If the input video goes away. This eliminates downstream glitches due to input signal issues, such as unsynchronized video switches. This feature is provided at no additional cost through a firmware upgrade. "Cobalt is always listening to our customers and responding to their needs with upgrades, enhancements, and often new products," said Chris Shaw, executive vice president of sales & marketing for Cobalt. "Saving money and space are two of the most common requests we hear today, and so it was a logical step to incorporate a frame synchronizer directly into our popular 9992-ENC encoder, and we've made it available at no additional cost to our customers."
