Available in the forthcoming v5 software upgrade, Cinedeck File-Based Insert Editing eliminates traditional, time-consuming workaround procedures of editing and re-rendering entire final program content, or editing and laying off to tape then re-encoding to a delivery file. The process uses standard deck controls and supports intermediate formats used by the most common NLE systems including Avid Media Composer, Apple Final Cut and Adobe Premiere, plus ProTools audio workstations. |

TheTranscode & Rewrapprocess was also launched. Baseband transcoding between files has been available since the initial release of the RX, but as Cinedeck platforms support so many codecs and wrappers, the company is launching this file-to-file transcoding interface so that users can choose which transcoding method is most appropriate at any given time. The new Transcode & Rewrap capability speeds file delivery. For example, rewrapping an XDCAMHD file from Op1A to OpAtom is done at up to 50x real-time. By combining Cinedeck’s new scheduling application with the Transcode & Rewrap tool, the post workflow can be automated, helping to make files ready-to-edit faster. |

The turbo-level CinedeckZX45adds greater processing power to support 4K and UHDTV-1 at 60P and eight channels of 2K, HD or SD. Lossless JPEG2000 recording, developed by Cinedeck for NASA’s multi-stream capture system for the Orion space program, is also on show.
