Using Matrox MXO2 devices with FCP X and Compressor 4
by: 
 7/14/2011 12:18 PM
In the first release of Final Cut Pro X, the interaction with I/O devices such as the Matrox MXO2 products is different than with previous versions of Final Cut Pro when it comes to capturing, monitoring, and outputting video. Exporting to H.264 files from the new Compressor 4 using Matrox MAX-enabled MXO2 devices remains up to 5 times faster than software alone. Read More

Export H.264 from Avid MC5 with MAX
by:

Maximum…Max. I’m talking the Matrox MAX system…the H.264 encoding engine in their MXO2 with MAX product line, and the CompressHD card. You might have thought that this only worked on the APPLE stuff…Compressor and FCP. But no…it works on the Avid Media Composer side too. Because the Matrox MXO2 Mini is designed to work as a monitoring option for MC5. Read More

Matrox MXO2 Mini

The MXO2 was built as a more traditional ingest and output system. Instead of DVI, the MXO2 conn Read More
