Featuring the latest cutting-edge technologies such as DeckLink 6G-SDI.

An industrial DVD recorder with an HDMI input, this product is one of the most versatile HD SDI DVD recorders you’ll ever use, let alone come across.

You could think of it as an industrial DVR DVD recorder with a hard drive, or as a hard drive recorder that burns DVD.  Either way, it's one of the most versatile tools you can use.

Compact 1U Rackmount design with removable rack brackets allows for desktop operation.

High Definition Video Resolution is standard with the HDi-250: up to HD1080 (1920 x 1080) in various formats.

Video Overlay is available as Date, Time or Date & Time, 20-character text, your logo in any of 6 positions.

Responsive Front Display messages show status and record setup options as well as playback and disc burn options.

HDi Control is as versatile as HDi recording. All operations are available from front panel pushbuttons and available via TCP/IP Telnet commands and optionally, RS-232 serial.

Web control is coming. HDi has a built-in webserver and we're building intuitive applications for recording, playback and disc burning.

Storage Options abound. Among the most popular options is a 2.5” removable hard drive and slot-load DVD drive. The removable 2.5” disk ensures complete security and ease of changing media for different assignments

HDi DVD 04a Discs

 Optical Storage: HDi-SDI is equipped with a standard DVDRW drive for maximum compatibility.    Record files directly to disc!   Make DVD-Video discs from existing files. Recordings can also be copied to a network drive or to the front USB port. The optional slot-load DVD drive is partered with a removable harddrive.  Slot-Load is preferred by some users to prevent breakage of the tray in a conventional drive.  

Remote Protocol:   For both TCP/IP (Telnet) and RS-232 Serial, the HDi-250 uses the "BCD1" 4-character command protocol, standard with all BCD products since 1982.   Commands like PLAY & STOP are enhanced with disc commands like COPY and BURN.  HDi shares many commands with BCD's DVD-1150 with more being added.
