About the Barco ScreenPRO-II Series
The Barco ScreenPRO-II Series is a multi-layer video display system that uses four image layers, comprising an unscaled background, up to two scaled PiP or key channels, and an unscaled downstream key, to produce sophisticated effects. Features include 10-bit video processing, 1:1 pixel sampling, motion adaptive de-interlacing for SD and HD, and PiP sizing from one-eighth to eight times source resolution with adjustable aspect ratio, borders, drop shadows and soft edges. Keying options cover luminance key, split key and reverse key. An internal 8x2 analog video router is included, along with look-ahead preview, aspect ratio correction, programmable matte, Z-order control for overlapping layers, and output synchronisation to NTSC/PAL blackburst, CSync or HD tri-level sync. The architecture also supports future optional output modules.
Barco ScreenPRO-II Series — buyer FAQs
What is the Barco ScreenPRO-II Series and how does it handle multiple video layers?
The Barco ScreenPRO-II Series is a multi-layer video display system that uses four image layers to produce sophisticated live effects. Those layers consist of an unscaled background, up to two scaled PiP or key channels, and an unscaled downstream key. Z-order control lets operators set priority for overlapping PiPs or keys, and the mixer can operate as a transitioning PiP or split into two independent non-transitioning PiPs or keys.
What PiP and keying capabilities does the ScreenPRO-II Series offer?
PiP windows on the ScreenPRO-II can be sized from one-eighth to eight times source resolution, with adjustable aspect ratio, borders, drop shadows and soft edges. Keying options include luminance key, split key (separate key alpha and fill) and reverse key, which keys onto the background. Native high-resolution downstream key and background channels operate independently of the PiP and key processing channel, allowing live transitioning backgrounds alongside keyed overlays.
What video processing standards does the second-hand ScreenPRO-II support?
The ScreenPRO-II uses 10-bit video processing with 1:1 pixel sampling and motion adaptive de-interlacing for both SD and HD signals. It also includes 3:2 and 2:2 pull-down detection, image cropping, aspect ratio correction and a low video delay of less than three input fields. Output synchronisation can be set to free-run or locked to NTSC/PAL blackburst, CSync or HD tri-level sync.
Who makes the ScreenPRO-II Series and where does it fit in Barco's portfolio?
The ScreenPRO-II is made by Barco, a Belgian visualisation technology company with a long history in pro AV, live events and image processing for entertainment venues and staging. The ScreenPRO-II sits within Barco's image processing and presentation switching range, addressing complex multi-layer video workflows for live production environments where transitioning effects, keying and PiP flexibility are required.
What should I check when buying a used ScreenPRO-II Series unit?
Verify the unit powers on and all four image layers, including PiP, key and downstream key channels, function correctly. Confirm the internal 8x2 analog video router is operational and check that output synchronisation locks properly to your chosen sync reference. Ask whether any optional output modules are fitted, as configurations vary. Used listings on this page include a 21-day warranty covering major functional faults; the buying guide at 10kused.com/used-av-equipment-guide/ has further detail.
