DropDV Software Releases DropDV 1.1
June 29, 2004
- DropDV is a Mac OS X droplet which converts MPEG video into DV video streams. After conversion, video can be edited in iMovie, Adobe Premiere, Final Cut Pro, or any other DV video editing system.
DropDV 1.1 adds the ability to convert VOB files to DV, and will optionally split output DV files so they are less than two GB.
DropDV is a Cocoa application, not an AppleScript. DropDV does not install any components or libraries onto your system. To install, simply copy DropDV to the hard drive. MPEG files can be dropped onto DropDV's icon, either in the Finder or in the Dock.
DropDV will accept MPEG-1 and MPEG-2 streams.
Features:
Simple, drag-and-drop interface
Maintains audio track
Uses high quality bicubic scaling for the best video image
Full YUV pipeline (no conversions to RGB)
Supports both NTSC and PAL output
Creates projects compatible with iMovie
Splits output DV files so they are less than 2 GB (can be disabled in preferences)
Will convert VCD, DVD and any other MPEG file into DV format
Includes a unix command mpg2dv, for use in shell scripts
A trial version is available for free downlaod, which places a visible watermark on DV streams. To remove the watermark, a licence must be purchased; single user license is available for $19.95.
