POWERFUL HARDWARE FEATURES
The move to high definition video production impacts computing power requirements and realtime editing performance, proportionally . Although HDV and HD video can be edited on today's systems with a basic OHCI FireWire interface, the realtime editing performance is strictly limited, and lacks any true full resolution video output for preview.
The EDIUS NX for HDV solution features advanced hardware that provides editors with video acquisition and output capabilities, including high-quality, full resolution component HD / SD video output as well as hardware-accelerated line scaling and video overlay, for the ultimate realtime HD / SD editing, effects and compositing performance.
Broad Video Equipment Connectivity and I/O
EDIUS NX for HDV's inputs and outputs provide connectivity to a broad range of analog and digital video equipment, including HDV, DVCPRO HD**, DVCPRO 50**, DV and S-VHS decks, as well as broadcast HD / SD monitors*. Connections include 4-pin FireWire, S-Video, composite, unbalanced stereo audio I/O and component HD / SD video output*.
Complete HDV Editing
While editing HDV, the ability to view compositions accurately is critical and only a HD monitor can faithfully display HDV output modes, including 1080i. EDIUS NX for HDV's Expansion Kit option features component HD video output for full-quality, full-resolution, realtime monitor output of 1080i HD video. Additionally, the Expansion Kit module features stereo RCA unbalanced audio output connectors and incorporates audio processing circuitry to ensure perfect audio and video synchronization during playback.
EDIUS NX for HDV includes capture support for HDV cameras and decks, including Sony's HDR-FX1 camera. When used with the Expansion Kit, or any IEEE 1394 OHCI FireWire controller, EDIUS NX for HDV provides direct capture support from HDV devices, such as Sony's HDR-FX1, either using the native HDV MPEG-2 transport stream format or Canopus's proprietary HQ codec.
EDIUS NX for HDV also includes an export-to-tape utility for edited sequences, and supports full device control options for Sony and JVC HDV devices.
Hardware-based Video Overlay for HD and SD Editing
Unlike OHCI-based editing systems, EDIUS NX for HDV processes video overlay using hardware. Video overlay data is written to the graphics card using Direct Memory Access (DMA). This means a lesser load is placed on the CPU during editing and realtime playback, and results in better realtime performance using the same CPU.
Hardware-based Line Scaling for HD Component Output
When using EDIUS NX for HDV with the Expansion Kit, hardware-based line scaling is used to convert the native 1440x1080 resolution of HDV and HQ to 1920x1080, for full-resolution HD component output. With other editing systems, line scaling is handled by the CPU, which adds additional load and ultimately restricts realtime editing performance.
Onboard Canopus Hardware DV Codec
EDIUS NX for HDV features an onboard hardware DV codec, which provides high-quality video streams on demand with unmatched flexibility. Software-based DV rendering with OHCI hardware utilizes valuable CPU power, thus limiting the realtime effects and multi-track capabilities available to the editor. EDIUS NX for HDV relieves the CPU from handling the processor-intensive task of rendering a DV output stream.
EDIUS NX for HDV's proprietary hardware and device control driver design allows frame-accurate capture and output to DV devices, not achievable using OHCI cards. EDIUS NX for HDV's circuitry stabilizes the DV signal for smooth control while the device control driver is designed and customized to control many different types of DV device. Frame-accurate control means EDIUS NX for HDV can output video back to an exact location on DV tape, for perfect insert recording.
When working with DV, EDIUS NX for HDV hardware handles the digital video data and PCM audio data for each video frame as one data block. The consistent data block handling at every stage of EDIUS NX for HDV's processing (including the ring buffer on the main memory, the data buffer on the board memory, and the codec module on the board) ensures video and audio stay in sync throughout the capturing, editing and output process.
Realtime High-quality Analog Capture and Output
EDIUS NX for HDV's analog inputs can capture video to Canopus's high-quality codecs, including DV, lossless, uncompressed, and DVCPRO 50**.
EDIUS NX for HDV's analog outputs always provide high-quality uncompressed YUV 4:2:2 video while editing or designing in EDIUS Pro 4, Adobe® Premiere® Pro, Adobe After Effects® and Adobe Photoshop®.
Realtime Bidirectional Analog / DV Conversion and Capture
EDIUS NX for HDV hardware can perform bidirectional conversion between analog and DV, from within any Windows-based NLE that supports OHCI. This means that applications such as Avid® Xpress® DV, Vegas® and Adobe® Premiere® Pro can capture and output DV using EDIUS NX for HDV's analog video I/O. EDIUS NX for HDV features the same technology found in Canopus's highly-acclaimed series of ADVC products, offering the very best in picture quality preservation and A/V synchronization.
This feature is available for systems where either an IEEE 1394 OHCI FireWire controller or the EDIUS NX for HDV Expansion Kit is present.
Advanced Analog Video Input Enhancement Technology
EDIUS NX for HDV features onboard analog filtering technology to improve the quality of analog footage during capture. Digital 3D Y/C Separation separates the Y/C (S-Video) signal to RGB using chronological information between signals. Digital 3D Noise Reduction eliminates noise from the analog video signal by detecting noise based on the characteristics of the video being input. Other filtering options include 2D Y and 2D C Noise Reduction, Black/White Gain Adjust and both Horizontal and Vertical Outline Enhancement.
The 2D Y and C noise reduction filters reduce noise based on either the Y input signal or C input signal. Black Gain Adjust raises the gain level within the black range of the Y input signal, making black colors clearer, with more contrast. The White Gain filter lowers the gain level in the white range of the Y input signal, darkening white colors, with more contrast.
The Horizontal Outline Enhancement filter adds an edge to the Y input signal, to emphasize horizontal edges, while the Vertical Outline filter detects vertical edges from the Y input signal and emphasizes them.
EDIUS NX for HDV Hardware Plug-ins for Adobe
EDIUS NX for HDV hardware can also be used from within several popular Adobe applications. The Adobe Premiere Pro plug-in supports both version 1.0 and 1.5 and provides video capture and output via the EDIUS NX for HDV board. The After Effects (v6.5) and Photoshop (v7 and CS) plug-ins allow users to preview their compositions directly on a video monitor in full, uncompressed 4:2:2 YUV quality, a feature that is especially important when applying color treatments.
NX for HDV Expansion Kit (optional)
The EDIUS NX for HDV Expansion Kit unleashes the full HD editing power of the EDIUS NX for HDV solution, providing editors with realtime, full-resolution HD component video output. With this additional board, editors can enjoy constant, high-quality 1080i output to any HD component monitor. The EDIUS NX for HDV Expansion Kit delivers the best possible preview of HD compositions and effects, without the expense of SDI-based hardware and displays.
The Expansion Kit also features an OHCI-compliant IEEE 1394 FireWire controller, which enables users to connect HDV cameras and decks for video capture and tape export. The inclusion of the FireWire controller also enables the realtime, bidirectional analog/digital conversion function of EDIUS NX for HDV, allowing anyone to use EDIUS NX for HDV as an ADVC from any Windows-based editing application that supports OHCI.
The EDIUS NX for HDV Expansion Kit also provides SD component video output, additional unbalanced stereo RCA audio output, and includes the EDIUS NX for HDV Bay.
