New Aurora Pipe Designed for Apple's RT Extreme Engine
September 12, 2003
Sterling Heights, MI - Aurora Video Systems has released a new Aurora Pipe video capture and editing card designed specifically to take advantage of Apple's RT Extreme capabilities while utilizing all of Final Cut Pro's real-time effects.
Integrating with Final Cut Pro and After Effects, Aurora Pipe provides a
low-cost, easy-to-use solution for offline editors working with
uncompressed applications that do not require the power of
hardware-accelerated real-time effects, the manufacturer describes.
Aurora Pipe and other products in Aurora Video Systems' line of
digital video capture and editing cards are designed specifically for
Apple's Final Cut Pro and provide compatibility with all QuickTime
applications.
Because Aurora Pipe is a QuickTime solution designed for the Mac OS,
no third-party software is necessary for previewing video in applications
other than Final Cut Pro. In addition to moving data from Final Cut Pro and
putting it on-screen, Aurora Pipe provides real-time preview compatibility
with both After Effects and Discreet's Combustion.
Aurora's newest card offers composite and S-video I/O and 16 bit, 48 kHz,
dual-channel RCA unbalanced audio, with perfect synchronization between the
Macintosh desktop and NTSC/PAL video display provided by True Color
Filtering for enhanced color space conversion.
Both upper- and lower-field PAL are supported with no rendering required to operate in an upper-field-first PAL timeline. Single- and dual-field playback control provides a perfect image for color correcting or graphics editing. A
genlock signal can be used to ensure perfect synchronization with external
equipment. Aurora's Open Video Technology allows for simple and regular
driver updates that enable quick access to the newest features and
functions.
Aurora Pipe, priced at $799, is available immediately.
