Date: Wed Sep 25 2002
First in the Dazzle Professional Series of products from SCM Microsystems Inc, Real-Time Video Producer is the revolutionary software-based video editing solution, delivering real-time performance, flexibility, portability and scalability with the ease of use for professional videographers.
Photokina - Cologne, Germany � September 25, 2002 � SCM Microsystems, Inc. (Nasdaq: SCMM; Neuer Markt: SMY), a leading provider of solutions that open the Digital World, today announced the ultimate solution for video professionals demanding true real-time performance and quality, Dazzle Real-Time Video Producer.
Real-Time Video Producer is the first product from the new Dazzle Professional Series. This revolutionary video editing solution delivers real-time performance through an innovative software architecture, which enables it to offer unmatched scalability, flexibility, portability and ease of use for professional videographers.
Hardware-based real-time editing products require video cards or other devices to be installed into the PC, and their rigid architecture limits their ability to adapt to a user�s evolving needs. By contrast, Real-Time Video Producer requires no complicated hardware installation, and is flexible in allowing additional features to be added over time. Because it is software based, Real-Time Video Producer is just as powerful when used on a laptop for on-location editing as when used on a desktop in the studio. The solution also delivers performance that is scalable with the speed of the CPU, enabling it to leverage not just today�s computers, but also the powerful new systems being introduced over the next few years.
�Dazzle�s software-based approach delivers the real-time productivity that videographers demand while literally outperforming hardware,� said Dirk Peters, director of marketing for SCM Microsystems� Digital Media and Video division. �Through its scalable and extensible architecture, Real-Time Video Producer defines a new standard within the industry for real-time, multi-stream video editing.�
Real-Time Video Producer�s software architecture overcomes the limitations of hardware solutions that support only two video channels. For example, when used on a 2.4GHz Pentium 4 computer system, three or more video streams, three color correction filters, transitions, picture-in-picture with motion, and title overlays can be processed simultaneously � and viewed instantly.
Underlying Technology
Real-Time Video Producer features Dazzle�s scalable Native Video Pipeline Technology and leverages the industry�s most popular professional editing software, Adobe� Premiere� 6.5. Native Video Pipeline technology allows Adobe Premiere to work with multiple channels of broadcast-resolution video in real time and with perfectly preserved color. This is achieved because Native Video Pipeline�s playback and effects engines are designed from the ground up to process video in its native YUV format rather than converting the video to the PC�s standard RGB format.
Real-Time Video Producer�s DV Analog I/O breakout box connects to the PC via a 1394 port. In real time it captures either native DV, or analog video at full resolution in 4:2:2 YUV format. Its full-resolution output enables productions to be viewed on a TV monitor or recorded to a VCR in real time.
Pricing, Availability
Dazzle Real-Time Video Producer includes the DV Analog I/O breakout box, and comes complete with Adobe Premiere 6.5, the award-winning Dazzle DVD Complete Deluxe DVD authoring software and Boris FX integrated effects and composition application. Real-Time Video Producer will be available in October at the suggested retail price of $599
