The latest chromakey algorithm, live video, OpenGL, and fullscreen
video make live compositing possible.
The live video effect passes analog TV through the timeline.
Floating point color brings unprecidented range to video monitoring
tools.
Mix 6 channel audio for your HDTV movie.
Mixing down 6 channel audio is easy with track routing.
Background rendering looks like a red bar in the timebar and really
fast playback.
The histogram and perspective effects bring new possibilities for
distortion. The perspective does concave surfaces in stretch mode
while doing traditional affine surfacess in perspective mode. Due to
the quantization of 8 bits, 8 bit colormodels always generate combs in
the histogram while 16 bit colormodels usually generate a smooth
histogram.
Your favorite LADSPA plugins are available. Some work in realtime.
Some can do multiple tracks simultaneously.
Here a chroma key is applied to a section of video. The sky behind the
heroine is removed and her 50,000 watt flamethrower of male
breadwinning is composited in.
A common operation is overlapping photos. Several photos are overlayed
over time and played with music here.
Large numbers of effects can be layered under tracks. The effects are
processed from top to bottom. In this case, the track 1 effects are
reused in track 2.
Variable track size has finally made it in. Crop those letterboxes,
speed up rendering, and do split screens with the greatest of ease.
Independant bezier masks can be defined for each track, with
feathering. Take out those annoying boom microphones, housewives, and
airplanes with a flick of the mouse.
The answer is yes, you can edit HDTV on Cinelerra if you have the
memory and CPU speed. This also shows how to get your two screen
editing fix.
If audio sweetening is your thing, put VU meters on the screens. This
also shows some titling.
Advanced track routing lets output of one track become the source of
another track, resulting in many possibilities for effects. Here the
titlers on two tracks are routed through a rotation and projection on
another track, all non destructive and composited on an HDTV scene.
HDTV is very hard to process on a single CPU. If you have a
renderfarm, the only limit to performance is network and fileserver
speed.
For one power computing freak, Cinelerra is a decent music file
playlist, with reverb.
Speaking of audio, this is an audio editing session.
Comparison of the 8 bit and 10 bit YUV codecs. Internal processing was
done at 16 bits, generating a 16 bit YUV average of 30 frames. Then it
was compressed to the 8 bit and 10 bit codecs to show the difference
between the codecs.
Cheap consumer camcorders keep getting cheaper along with their picture
quality. Cinelerra can make cheap camcorder video look more like
film.
