For anyone who´s had to sit through an interminable HDV project render, the MXO is a godsend. That´s because the new Matrox box allows editors to bypass the rendering process in Apple Final Cut Pro and other QuickTime-based apps. How does it accomplish this singular — yet significant — task? The MXO takes the DVI output of a Mac (the FCP realtime preview, for instance) and converts it to broadcast-quality video, which then can be recorded directly to tape. The MXO has genlockable HD/SD-SDI, HD/SD analog component, Y/C, and composite outputs, and it offers interlacing artifact elimination and gamma correction when previewing video on a second DVI monitor. |
