HD Software Editing Demonstrated
January 26, 2005
London, U.K. - Tenomichi and AMD have combined to demonstrate real-time high definition video editing system ,using its 3D Edit Pro editing program, at the UK's Video Forum 2005 Exhibition.
3D Edit Pro enables the real time editing of high definition formats including Windows Media High Definition Video (WMV HD) and High-Definition Video (HDV) and uses the Graphical Processing Unit (GPU) to add real-time FX, the companies report.
3D Edit Pro includes Tenomichi's Shaderman Library of real-time "shader FX" which are small programs that run inside GPU. Shaderman has traditional features such as colour correction and chroma keying as well as a whole host of new FX created with Nvidia, which have migrated from the computer games and film industry.
In the past you would need proprietary accelerated video editing hardware to edit High Definition video but 3D Edit Pro uses the staggering power of the AMD Athlon 64 processor, and NVidia GeForce 6 series GPUs coupled with the PCI Express Bus to deliver a software only solution.
The company announced it intends to ship 3D Edit Professional in January 2005 with further add on modules throughout 2005. Shaderman is currently priced around $1,600 and 3D Edit Pro is priced around $120.
