Whether encoding MPEG video for DVD
production, producing Windows Media for streaming or transcoding
between NTSC and PAL, ProCoder 3 makes video format conversion quick
and easy. Encode a single source to multiple targets simultaneously,
run multiple conversion jobs back-to-back in batch mode, or use
drag-and-drop preset icons to start conversion with a single click.
This new version of ProCoder features a number of enhancements for
today’s multi-format production needs:
-
— With the addition of H.264 encoding and decoding, ProCoder 3
is ready to convert and produce for popular mobile video devices
such as the Apple iPod® and Sony PSP™.
-
— The Canopus HQ codec is now included
with ProCoder 3, allowing standalone encoding and decoding of
Canopus HQ files without requiring Grass Valley EDIUS software
installed on the machine with ProCoder.
-
— AVCHD decoding capability allows the conversion
of video footage from the new generation of compact camcorders
for editing, streaming and DVD production.
- — Grid Encoding
support for MPEG-2 (Transport Stream) provides even greater
encoding speed on modern multi-core and multi-CPU computer
systems. This feature is automatically engaged when you choose
the 'Preview DVD Target' or 'HDV Target' formats for encoding.
-
— Common in DVD production as well as
retransmission, ProCoder 3 supports Dolby Digital audio encoding
for enhanced audio quality in less space. ProCoder 3 also allows
you to add, swap, and remove individual channels of audio within
the target format with the inbuilt channel mixer.
