Canopus Announces Real-time Editing Solutions for Video
September 26, 2003
San Jose, CA - Canopus Corporation has introduced Let's EDIT video editing software and the Let's EDIT RT+ real-time editing solution.
Let's EDIT RT+ offers high-end real-time features, including DV and
analog input and output, movie-style effects, 2D and 3D transitions, as well
as video, titles and graphics layers, the manufacturer reports. Although Let's EDIT supports any OHCI video capture card, the Let's EDIT RT+ real-time editing solution pairs Let's EDIT software with the only OHCI video capture card on the market that provides real-time analog and DV input and output to deliver the ultimate real-time home editing and DVD creation package.
Let's EDIT and Let's EDIT RT+ support Microsoft Windows 98, Windows ME,
Windows 2000 and Windows XP and will be available in October 2003 from
Canopus and its authorized dealers and system integrators.
The Let's EDIT software's real-time video editing and effects capabilities
are powerful and easy to use and feature exciting movie-style effects using
stackable video filters, such as Old Movie, Blur, Pencil Sketch and color
correction; 2D and 3D transitions, such as 3D Dissolve, Cube Spin and Page
Peels; and customizable effects, such as Chroma Key, Picture-in-Picture and
speed control. Let's EDIT also offers two video tracks for real-time mixing
and playback of up to three video clips at the same time, as well as
simultaneous title and graphics tracks with motion and opacity controls.
Let's EDIT software features Canopus's proprietary Media Technologies to
provide DV and MPEG video output. User-definable presets support MPEG-1 and MPEG-2 files required for DVDs, SVCDs and VCDs. Let's EDIT also includes Ulead DVD MovieFactory SE for DVD authoring.
Let's EDIT RT+ combines Let's EDIT software with an OHCI capture card for
video capture from either analog or DV camcorders, as well as
real-time analog and DV output. Let's EDIT RT+ features Canopus's proprietary
DV codec chip, and provides analog-to-DV conversion with locked audio support for audio and video synchronization.
Let's EDIT RT+ is also compatible with all popular video
formats, including VHS, S-VHS, Hi8, DV, Digital8 and DVCAM. The card's native OHCI design provides compatibility not only with the Let's EDIT software, but also with leading Windows consumer and professional editing and DVD authoring applications, including Sonic Foundry Vegas, Avid Xpress DV, Adobe Premiere, Pinnacle Edition and Ulead MediaStudio Pro.
Let's EDIT software is priced at $149 (requires OHCI capture card).
Let's EDIT RT+ (software and capture card package) is available for a
suggested retail price of $399.
