Stack DVR Stack’s second generation video recorders have the same quality, reliability and compact design of the original Stack Harsh Environment DVR, but at a price and with specifications focused specifically for the competition motorsports market. Stack’s new Digital Video Recorders are available in three variants: PRO-4 DVR For high quality, multiple camera input video recordings on the move, the miniature solid-state PRO-4 Digital Video Recorder (DVR) provides the optimum solution and is specifically designed for the motorsports environment. The DVR employs broadcast standard MPEG2 video compression to record very high quality video and audio direct to a Compact Flash (CF) card. This card can be removed with ease and played on a PC or laptop using a standard media player application. Recordings can be archived direct to DVD for playback on a standard DVD player. The PRO-4 DVR has 4 camera inputs and a 4-input multiplexer, allowing virtually any combination of 1 to 4 camera images (composite PAL or NTSC) on one screen, with configurable scaling, cropping, positioning and picture-in-picture. The PRO-4 DVR is housed inside a rugged, fully waterproof enclosure, specifically designed and manufactured to protect the unit from the motorsport environment. The unit is compact and durable with no moving parts (other than the sealed flash card access door), and is capable of operating where normal VCRs or DV recorders are not. The PRO-4 DVR can be used as a stand-alone multiple camera DVR, or as part of a fully Synchronized Video-Logger system, complete with modular data acquisition from 8 to 128 channels. Being a fully waterproof unit, and operating from 32º-158ºF, the PRO-4 DVR is ideally suited for all types of motorsport, from Formula 1 to karts, bikes to boats, and many more applications. PRO DVR The PRO DVR has all of the features of the PRO-4 DVR above, but with only 1 camera input. Clubman DVR The Clubman DVR is perfect for all forms of club and semi-professional motorsport. It has all of the features of the PRO DVR, but utilising commercial connectors to provide exceptional value for money. The Clubman DVR is not waterproof and operates from 32º-122ºF.
