The CG-CG-350 Character Generator for SD & HD from Datavideo is a Windows-based system designed for use in live- and post-production environments. It offers a standard set of base functionality plus a number of complementary functions managed by different subsystems. Both sets of functionality will work with a Blackmagic Design Decklink or AJA Xena cards as a downstream keyer or as key & fill sources, dependent upon the functionality of the card used. This model of the system offers advanced functionality, such as banner crawl and snyper functions, which run independently from the character generator software.
