Avid Liquid software
is a powerful SD and HD video editor for the PC that offers integrated DVD authoring, surround sound audio processing, and thousands of
amazing real-time effects. Its integrated toolset provides all of the tools
needed to create high-quality productions and quickly output to tape, DVD or web
streams.
Editing.
Audio. DVD. Effects. One application
Avid
Liquid combines powerful video editing integrated with DVD authoring from the timeline; surround-sound audio processing; and powerful visual effects.Editors only have to learn a single interface to create high-quality video productions with sophisticated effects and audio—and quickly output to tape, disc,
or streaming media.
Complete
HDV workflow
Avid
Liquid offers native transfers and frame-accurate editing of 720p and 1080i
HDV content. It also includes an MPEG IBP render codec that provides the same 25Mbit workflow editors use with DV media. It features a powerful real-time
effects engine that provides multiple streams of HDV in real time; video monitoring
either on the VGA monitor or downconverted to an SD monitor in real time using the
available breakout box; and, most important, a smooth workflow for output to
SD or back to HDV tape.
Format
flexibility
Avid Liquid supports the Avid Open Timeline: mix content from a variety
of sources without having to transcode between formats. Videographers can edit DV, MPEG
I-frame, MPEG IBP, uncompressed SD, Windows Media, DIVX and MPEG-4, as well as HDV, in the same timeline. With such a broad palette of native codecs,
editors can spend more time creatively editing instead of re-rendering from
format to format.
Smooth
DVD production
Using
Avid Liquid Pro software and hardware, editors can capture footage to a DVD-compliant MPEG IBP codec. They can add titles and effects and then dive into a full-featured DVD authoring toolset to define the interactivity; create
and customize menus and navigation; preview and modify the DVD from the timeline; add a Dolby Digital 5.1 surround mix; and then intelligently render out to a
finished DVD.
Editing
for everyone
Avid Liquid software offers a flexible user interface and functions
that match any level of editing experience. As users move from other consumer-level or
professional-level applications, the transition is smooth and efficient.
