ROSS Kiva+ Premium Presentation Video Server
Professional Quality
For real-time record and play operations, the high-performance Kiva+ Presentation video server utilizes high-quality AVC-Intra video hardware.
When AVC-Intra Class 100 media files are imported into Kiva+, no media file transcoding is involved so they are imported in the shortest amount of time, and with professional-level image quality. Import speeds can range from 5X up to 40X real-time when 10-gigabit data connections are used in conjunction with external storage devices that incorporate similar, extremely high-speed technology such as storage devices featuring modern NVMe SSD technology.
Kiva+ can also easily ingest media files created with just about any other video codec. These files will be cleanly transcoded into the AVC-Intra codec upon import into Kiva+.

Description
Channel Pairs
Kiva+ is available in three different “channel pair” models, so you can choose the option that best fits your production needs and budget.
In the Kiva+ One-Channel model, there is one base-band video+audio recording input, one Video+Key Preview Player output, and one Video+Key Program Player output. The Kiva+ Two-Channel model doubles these video channel resources, and the Kiva+ Three-Channel model triples them.
Are you on a limited budget or have smaller-scale productions and not yet ready for the Kiva+ Two or Three-Channel models? Start with the One-Channel model and then upgrade to the Kiva+ Two-or Three-Channel model when your budget permits or when your production needs change. Upgrading is a simple as plugging in one or two PCIe video boards into the Kiva+ server chassis.
