Many of the HDV editing systems
currently available compromise video quality in order to provide
realtime editing functionality. Grass Valley EDIUS NX Express
delivers genuine realtime HD resolution editing including full
quality, full frame rate HD output — to an HD video monitor — from
the timeline. Two important workflow benefits are derived from a
genuine realtime HDV editing system like EDIUS NX Express:
- No rendering is required to
preview edited sequences; results are displayed instantaneously
— on HD video monitors.
- The original video and audio
data can be preserved at every step of the editing process. You
can always be assured that the format you start with is exactly
what will be delivered. This eliminates any guesswork when
applying the multitude of realtime effects featured with the
system.
