GOP structure
Constant bit rate (bit rate remains stable, quality varies depending on complexity of each frame)
Constant quality (each video frame is analyzed to deliver the targeted quality, bit rate varies while keeping the lowest possible bit rate)
Variable bit rate (squeezes out the highest possible quality at the average target bit rate)
Noise filtering (saves bits by reducing high frequencies in the video)
De-interlacing (ensures high-quality encodes of interlaced SD and 1080i source material)
Data rate slider (produces smoother or more abrupt transitions)
Sample rate monitoring (verifies compliance with targeted data rate)
Scene detection (provides multi-pass quality in a single pass with Apple Compressor)

Scaling |
|
Scaling Engine |
Hardware-based multi-tap 10-bit real-time processing
HD to SD downscaling: Proper conversion of the HD color space to the SD color space and proper aspect ratio conversion to anamorphic, letterbox, and center cut are provided. You can monitor or record an SD master of an HD project in real time.
SD to HD upscaling: Proper conversion of the SD color space to the HD color space is performed. Footage with a 4:3 aspect ratio will be “pillarboxed”. SD 16:9 footage will be scaled to full screen.
Cross conversions from 720 to 1080 and 1080 to 720
All scaling operations can be accompanied by frame rate conversion with 2:3:2:3 and 2:3:3:2 cadences to facilitate monitoring 23.98 fps footage on a monitor that does not support the specific frame rate.
