AMBERFIN UPGRADES MASTERING & TRANSCODING SOFTWARE

V.4.5 offers native support for Avid DNxHD and Final Cut Pro. Extended MXF support of native Panasonic P2, Sony XDCAM and Avid Op Atom MXF further increases interoperability with a wide range of tapeless cameras, VTRs, editing and server systems. Simultaneous ingest and transcoding features allow conversions and transcodes to be pipelined with ingest operations for greater throughput. And file-based standard definition motion compensated frame rate conversion is now available as a standard feature on all iCR systems.

Sharpening and softening pre-processing filters allow HD and SD content to be seamlessly integrated and eliminate macroblocking artifacts at low bit rates without compromising quality.
