Technical Details for Canopus Edius DVX

Canopus Edius DVX ... the most powerful realtime editing capabilities in its class including DV capture via FireWire and render-free DV and analog output.

EDIUS DVX features hardware-based DV editing acceleration, providing the industry's best picture quality with unparalleled realtime editing performance. The advanced hardware codec at the heart of EDIUS DVX generates the realtime DV output stream without placing any load on the CPU.

EDIUS Pro software makes EDIUS DVX capable of the realtime, render-free output of compositions that may feature any number of video, audio, title and graphics layers, with keyframable 2D, 3D and alpha video transitions and sophisticated, stackable video filters. This power is made possible by the scalable video technology built into EDIUS Pro. Pioneered by Canopus in 1998, scalable video technology ensures that the realtime editing capabilities of EDIUS DVX increase with CPU power. Scalability ensures a long product life and a high return on investment.

EDIUS DVX features advanced analog and digital video I/O and processing to ensure the very best picture quality, with perfectly synchronized audio, at every step of the production process. High-quality analog output provides live, uncompressed YUV 4: 2: 2 video when editing in all supported applications. The proprietary design of the IEEE 1394 DV interface found on EDIUS DVX offers responsive, frame accurate control of DV devices and, of course, realtime DV output from the EDIUS Pro timeline.
