Nexto Video Storage Pro+ NVS2525 makes field data easier to wrangle

Ohio HD Video has just added a really cool device for everyone who has been struggling with a data solution for the field. Weather you shoot Compact Flash, SD Cards, SxS or P2 solid-state cards this one button back-up solution may be your answer.

The Nexto Video Storage Pro+ NVS2525 is designed to back up a 32GB SxS or P2 card in seven minutes, at up to 80MB per second. It then performs verification, comparing the file on the card to the file on the hard disk to make sure the data is copied accurately (this takes the same time again). At the end of each backup, it automatically generates an html-based Index file containing a decoded frame and metadata that can be viewed in any web browser.

For reviewing footage as thumbnails or to preview video clips, the NVS2525 has an LCD screen and can preview XDCAM EX or many other formats including Convergent Design nanoFlash files, HDV and most Panasonic DVCPro, AVCHD and AVC-Intra files.

It allows users to plug in a second eSATA or USB hard drive to generate a second copy without needing a laptop. It can also burn back-up folders to a Blu-ray drive.

If video files contain a bad sector they might not load onto a computer for editing, so the NVS2525 recovers bad sectors to make a useable file. Although a few frames may be lost, the rest can then be used.

The NextoVideo Storage Pro+ NVS2525 is now available for your next shoot @ Ohio HD Video & Film Rental
