• Added “AES7.0” executable for Edius/Aurora integration. To enable

Edius to access Aurora ‘Story View, Media Frame, Assignment List’

Hardware

• HTX-OP1 – TC+BB reference i/o for Thunder

• 1280.720 50p capture and output for Thunder/HD Storm

• Fire Coder Intra Edius 5.1 timeline export

• Fire Coder Blu Edius 5.1 timeline export, AVCHD>HQ acceleration

Project Settings

• Profile Management - read only option

• Clear recent project list (MRU)

• Render format and ‘detail’ – List depends on Project Setting in use.

• Shared environment profile management. Store profiles as Local/Local

Importer

• Added Function in EDL exporter – reel name field.

• Capture Reel Name Setting - reel name on video overlay.

• Capture Reel Name Setting – generate from tape (User Bit data)

• Capture Reel Name Setting – reel name settings.

• FCP XML project importer – import FCP prj. *Also Aurora edit prj.

• AVCHD Importer – If CPI (Clip Information File) exists in camera

AVCHD file structure, Edius will not create an .ese seek file. Gives

faster import/less load on disk.

• MPEG Importer – Seek information file can record more information –

which in turn contributes to faster import time and less hard disc

loading

• New AVCHD>HQ encoder (multi-core/multi-file encoder)

*With/Without Fire Coder hardware acceleration

• QuickTime importer support extended

+ DV/DVCPRO

DVCPRO 50

Uncompressed SWF

8-bit YUV

Tools

• XDCAM – Download media option to ‘Edius project folder’.

Previously, clips were downloaded to local drives set by user.

• XDCAM/P2/Infinity/GF Cam– Partial Download support. Only

transfer or up-res media ‘in use’ on timeline, ie - not all the hi-res

media from entire clip.

• Tape-less background transfer optimise (app setting/playback) – helps

to prevent timeline playback stutter during transfer.

Timeline

• Bin – New columns – Video/Audio Stream/Container/Gain all new column

fields are included in bin search for better media management.

• Change properties of multiple clips – not all fields, but fields with drop down

menus are OK for bulk change – F2 to rename/jump fields, or use pull

menu (aspect ratio/clip colour) -

• Container/Reel number added support to property pane

• Popup window layer behaviour – Preference to Bin then vector scope, audio

mixer, clip property, layout tool, effect editor window, marker info palette.

Timeline will remain behind when selected.

• Video layout – key frame reset – ‘initialise’

Before 1

After 1

• Audio Channel Map A1/A2 is A1(L) A2 (R))

• GPU Safe colour

• Sequence Marker/Clip Marker Window

• Marker range set by i/o points

• Normalize – Audio Normalise by ‘Track/Selected’ segments. Bin column

‘Gain’ and Clips ‘Audio property’ show added gain from the process.

• Clip Transition – trimming + trim display on transition improved for clarity.

• Clip Speed – Global speed change long clip, + multiple clips – ‘duration on

Timeline remains fixed’ option

• Stereo wave display on Timeline Track (wave GUI update) – Stereo/Mono

mix possible – helps to make user audio mapping faster.

• Multicam mode sync point menu operational. Clip Sync methods –

Asynchronous, Timecode, Rec Time, Clip In, Clip Out

• Source/Rec monitor shortcut menu added.

Exporter

• Batch Exporter – New buttons for adding + deleting profiles/batch lists.

• MPEG 2 Elementary stream support

• Added support for GF/XDCAM as MPEG render formats

• Newly supported video formats in mxf exporter

DV, DVCPRO, DVCPRO50
