Datavideo CG-100 Character Generator
The CG-100 is a PC-based character generator that produces lower thirds, text rolls, text crawls and more. It can import .TGA animations, text files, still images and even display the PC's time.
Any font installed on the system can be used by our character generators, as well as languages (i.e. if using Arabic, Hebrew, etc., text appears right to left - the program itself is in English only). You can create and save as much text as your hard drive allows, and they can be recalled in sequence. Using the Live Operation Mode, the CG-100 can also be used as a live on-screen typewriter.
Decklink CG-100 Connections

NOTE: Blackmagic Design does not support the use of Decklink cards on Dell computers, due to past incompatibilities.
The CG-100 is available as software only or bundled with a compatible Blackmagic Decklink card (see below).
Pre-configured systems Datavideo also offers complete workstations with our CG-100 software pre-installed. Visit our CG-100-TO-GO page for more details.
