NAB 2004: published MainConcept MPEG Pro Plug-in for Adobe Premiere Pro
[18:55 Tue,20.April 2004 by Thomas Richter]
MainConcept has released today at the NAB 2004 show in Las Vegas, an MPEG Pro plug-in for Adobe Premiere Pro. The plug-in delivers MPEG-1 / 2 recording, editing and exporting capabilities. Although Premiere Pro, MPEG-1 / 2 can import files, the material must be for effective editing in the project format, such as DV. If you want a project but again output to an MPEG format such as DVD, it must be converted back to MPEG. This unnecessary transcoding leads to a loss of quality and productivity. MainConcept MPEG Pro Adobe Premiere Pro extends to native MPEG-1 / 2 treatment, by using smart rendering and Requantisierung to avoid unnecessary rendering. The plug-in also offers real-time MPEG capturing at up to DVD quality from a variety of analog and digital sources, including DV camcorders, Sony MICROMV ™, TV tuner cards, video cards with analog inputs as well as many other devices. Expensive hardware encoders are needed for real-time recording from now on no longer. (The capture performance depends on system resources.) The MPEG Pro plug-in also contains the powerful MPEG encoder, which allows you to export directly from the timeline into a number of MPEG-1 / 2 formats. The standard version of MPEG Pro Plug-ins supports resolutions up to 720x576 (PAL) and 720x480 (NTSC). It is available for immediate download for only € 249 on the MainConcept website are available. The HD version adds support for various popular high-definition formats, including the ability to record directly from a JVC JY-HD10U camcorder into Premiere Pro. MPEG Pro HD still does not accelerate as these to process normally requires a transcoding to another format. The MPEG Pro plug-in has the goal of MPEG material in its native format, stick to it. The high-definition performance depends on the system requirements. A free demo version of the plug-ins available online. more infos at bei www.mainconcept.de
