Casablanca Updates Smart Edit, DVD Arabesk
February 26, 2004
Boulder, CO - MacroSystem US announced that Smart Edit 3.2 and DVD Arabesk 2.1 are available now from local Casablanca dealers as a free update for all Smart Edit 3 and Arabesk 2 users.
The company reports that new features and changes in the video editing program includes:
- Timer controlled recording now also starts when the Casablanca is running.
- Timer controlled recording is now also a feature of Avio without Avio Pro pack.
- The layout/positioning of the screen menus for some effects and add-on products has been improved.
- Scenes in the storyboard can be trimmed to a longer length if the scene is still in the bin.
- A scene that has just been recorded can be deleted in the Record window by pressing the "Delete" key on the keyboard (Power Key required).
New Features and Changes in DVD Arabesk 2.1 include:
- Audio issues on burned DVDs have been corrected.
- It is now possible to record up to 2.5 hours of video by using the reduced picture quality (this depends on picture content and compressed audio).
- Information on required disc space has been improved.
- Various problems regarding playback of audio using the internal player have been corrected (audio sync, errors, no audio, channels reversed).
- To avoid problems on older Casablanca Avio units, it is not possible to playback compressed audio. This does not influence the finished DVD.
- Playback of DVDs, which have not been created with Casablanca, is no longer possible as this caused various problems.
- Many smaller problems have been fixed (chapter, multiple line texts, navigation in menu, NTSC audio, etc.).
Smart Edit 3.2 is a free upgrade to all 3.0 users. Smart Edit 3.2 Upgrade from OS 1.x is $299; Smart Edit 3.2 Upgrade from Smart Edit 2.0 is $179
