The VWP120 Windowing Processor is a 1RU rack-mount appliance that connects to an SVSi video network and accepts any four video streams as input. Each input can be cropped, scaled, and positioned according to stored presets (such as quad, window-in-window, 3+1, etc) or in any user-defined configuration. The combined output video stream is then routed to one or more displays at HD 1080p or CG 1600×1200 resolution. The VWP120 functions as a 4×1 windowing processor and can be stacked to give 7×1, 10×1, 13×1, 16×1, or higher capability. A single connection to the network provides access to all available SVSi video streams for window selection and for output of the combined stream. The VWP120 is another example of networked AV products that position SVSi as the preferred provider of video-over-IP equipment for the ProAV market.

Windowing Processor Overview
The Windowing Processor accepts 4 SVSi input streams, scales, arranges, and combines them in to a 5th stream that can be used with any SVSi device, such as RXs, Transcoders, DVRs, or another Windowing Processor.
See the diagram below.
The WP is accepting streams 1, 3, and 4 from standard transmitters and stream 2 from a DVR. Its output is a new combined stream, Stream 5.
Stream 5 is then being accepted by a receiver and DVR.
For clarity, 2 arrows are used by the diagram. The WP uses only one Ethernet connection to the network.
The main areas are as follows:
-
Arrangement
This is the main control area. It is a combination Arrange, Stretch, and Skew. A viewport is presented representing the overall screen. From there, you may position and stretch windows through drag-and-drop/resize or directly inputing values.
This area is also used to manipulate other settings, such as borders, backgrounds, presets, mode, and input streams.
-
Crop/Pan/Zoom
The viewport now represents an individual window designated by the active tab. Click and drag to select the area in the viewport to crop or directly input values. A value of 0 represents no crop.
-
Transmitter Settings
This area has all the other settings not often changed, such IP address, port blocking, device name, etc.
Arrangement Page
The arrangement page is the default page for the Windowing Processor. It includes the most important controls for manipulating the 4 input windows and combined output window.
See the screenshot below.
The available controls are as follows:
-
Viewport
This area is a scaled down approximation of what is currently being shown. Windows can be dragged and dropped to new locations. Move your mouse to the edge or corner to resize. To help align window edges, check “Snap & Grid”. Click “Take” to activate new settings.
This area is also used to manipulate other settings, such as borders, backgrounds, presets, mode, and input streams. -
Direct Input area (to the right of viewport)
This area contains the calculated values based on what is shown in the viewport. The values shown is for the selected individual window (designated by the active tab). You may directly input your own values, which will update the viewport represenation. This area also controls border styling, the input stream, andif the window is active.
Below the tab are controls for the main window. There is Snap & Grid, the output mode, the audio stream, and Save Preset (disk icon), Refresh Page, and Take. -
Presets (below viewport)
The are a handful of factory presets. They manipulate the arrangement/strech/skew without executing Take. The drop down box contains presets previously set. The number in front the of the preset is an identifier that can be used for third-party-integration.
-
Background selection (bottom left)
The windowing processor can hold up to 4 backgrounds. When you upload a background, it replaces an old one. Use this area to swap between them.
-
Viewport
This area shows the image to be displayed if there is no video source. The area can be clicked and dragged to select crop coordiantes. Drag the selection box to pan. The viewport is scaled based on the current resolution of the input. Click “Aspect Ratio” for help selecting an even zoom.
-
Direct Input area (to the right of viewport)
You may supply your own crop coordinates. 0 means no crop. You may also replace the currently stored image. Replacing the background requires a reboot before becoming active. The values shown is for the selected individual window (designated by the active tab).
Below the tab are controls for the main window. -
Take (below input area)
Activate new crop coordinates.
Presets
Presets allow saving an option number of items as shown below. See screen shot below.
Save Preset Pop-up
Presets will scale down or up your arrangement, crop coordinates, etc, depending on the current mode the Windowing Processor versus the mode when it was saved. Saving a preset will execute a Take command.
Replace Backgrounds
You have 4 background slots. Uploading a new one will replace one. Backgrounds may be JPG or PNG.
Crop/Pan/Zoom Page
The Crop/Pan/Zoom page allows finer control of individual windows than the main Arrangement page.
See the screenshot below:
The available controls are as follows:

Conductor Server Installation
There are two activation codes for Conductor Server. The first activation allows it to be used for a set period of time (usually a month). The second permamently locks Conductor Server to your SVSi hardware allowing it to be used forever. With the second, as long as Conductor Server can “see” your SVSi hardware, it will continue to operate.
