Full Digital Video (DV) support
Previous versions of MediaStudio Pro supported even the very first
DV products on the market. The latest version now offers compre-
hensive support for DV in all of its manifestations. This includes, but is
not limited to, Type-1, Type-2, PAL, NTSC, and even the direct control
of your camcorder. Please see the Tutorials section on pages 25 and
28 for details.
Advanced MPEG: capture, edit, and create
MediaStudio Pro gives you the power to edit MPEG-1 and MPEG-2 movies with amazing
frame-accurate technology. The wide availability of CD writing hardware, or CD-R,
allows anyone to create their own Video CD (VCD). MediaStudio Pro lets you create
WhiteBook standard MPEG-1 movies that are ready to be written to a VCD. See page
207.
MediaStudio Pro 6.0 also allows you to create amazing DVD quality movies using the
MPEG-2 format, which is also used in direct digital satellite television. Start by capturing
MPEG video straight from your camcorder, if your hardware supports it (See page 28),
then trim and edit your movie with frame accuracy. Finally, take advantage of DVD
quality to create your final MPEG-2 movie. (See page 208. )
This flexible technology allows you to create MPEG-2 movies from any source for a
truly professional solution. One revolutionary new idea is to capture and edit using the
lossless quality of DV and then create a highly compressed MPEG-2 movie from the DV
source material.
Note: Because of the very special nature of MPEG, full MPEG support is not included
with all versions of MediaStudio Pro. Special hardware may be required for smooth
playback and/or capture.
