This is the capture part and is very io intensive. This will happen on a standalone machine. 25 fps D1 10 bits per color. 25*720*576*3*2=62.2MBps. Regular pci bus will choke. U require hardware compression on the capture card or PCIE. And fast storage 230 GB per hr of raw video. > processing it in the machine This can be distributed on the cluster and will scale linearly. > and editing it. Same here. Both the above depends on what processing u are doing. Basically each frame is divided into blocks. Figures are available on the net for compute cycles per block and per frame. U can distribute blocks or frames across the cluster. There are tradeoffs. > After edit, its converted to dvd for backup and broadcast. One > second of uncompressed video is 50 MB in digital format.
