    OUTSTANDING HARDWARE TECHNOLOGY
    To build an exceptional NLE with guaranteed real-time performance, you have to start with a solid foundation. dpsVelocity is built on the hardware expertise that won us an Emmy® Award in 2000 for Outstanding Achievement in Television Technology. dpsVelocity runs on the dpsReality digital disk recorder, featuring real-time playback of two video streams and two graphics streams, plus real-time 3D effects with the optional V3DX daughtercard. The dpsReality hardware supports compressed and uncompressed video playback and recording, providing unparalleled video quality, and includes an integrated SCSI controller. dpsReality packs all of this power, plus professional I/O (including composite, Y/C, component, and optional DV and SDI), multi-channel audio mixing, video mixing, keying and alpha channel support onto a single PCI card that requires just one IRQ.

    INTUITIVE, FLEXIBLE AND CUSTOMIZABLE INTERFACE
    Our award-winning dpsVelocity software has been updated with a wide range of new features that increase productivity and enhance the editing interface and workflow. The editing timeline features selectable A/X/B and single-track timeline modes, real-time support for video files with alpha channel, independent variable track scaling, mute and solo of video and audio tracks, multiple timeline support and more. Captured clips and other media are easily organized into one or more tabbed customizable galleries. Media can be played, sorted, searched and managed right within the galleries, while mouse controls, user-definable hotkeys, and an optional jog/shuttle controller let you pick your favorite style of editing.

    EASY 3 AND 4 POINT EDITING AND TRIMMING
    Clips can be trimmed directly on the timeline or with the advanced Trim Window, which provides easy 3 and 4-point edit modes including insert, overlay, slip, slide, and fit-to-fill.

    MULTI CAMERA EDITING MADE EASY
    dpsVelocity 8.0's new two-camera editing mode makes editing a sequences using multiple camera angles easy and intuitive. Sequences from two cameras can be "sliced and diced" interactively as you view your sources in real-time, directly from the timeline – no special plug-ins required! Editing a multi-camera shoot has never been easier or faster.

    CAPTURING FOOTAGE
    Capturing footage is accurate and flexible, with methods ranging from quick capture to frame-accurate batch capture. Batch recapture allows footage to be captured at offline compression rates, and later replaced with higher quality footage for output. EDL import and export are also available for easy collaboration with other editing systems.

    FULLY CUSTOMIZABLE EFFECTS & TRANSITIONS
    Hundreds of predefined and customizable transitions and effects are included and fully keyframeable for precision control. Real time effects including variable speed changes, reverse, color correction, "garbage mattes" and keying can be combined simultaneously with transitions and rolling and crawling titles, providing maximum creative flexibility. With the V3DX 3D DVE module, 3D effects such as rotation, perspective and warp can be applied to graphics as well as video, and played back simultaneously with wipes and other effects in real time. If you ever do need to render, DPS Render Bank technology remembers previously rendered segments, eliminating re-rendering.

    FLEXIBLE OUTPUT FORMATS & WEB STREAMING
    dpsVelocity lets you easily create output directly from the timeline for any popular distribution format — video tape, CD-ROM, DVD or the web. Web formats including RealNetworks® RealVideo® , Microsoft® Windows Media™ and QuickTime™ can be output from the timeline in real time, plus Ligos™ GoMotion™-powered MPEG-1 and MPEG-2 formats for CD-ROM and DVD authoring. In addition to creating on-demand web files, dpsVelocity can also stream to the web live from the timeline. Live video from a camera or deck can be combined in real time with titles, transitions, and previously captured clips, and streamed live for exceptional webcasting flexibility.

    PRECISION QUALITY CONTROL
    dpsVelocity features uncompressed and variable compression playback and recording for perfect quality every time, with the flexibility to mix compressed and uncompressed footage in the same timeline. Proc amp controls, color correction, and an integrated waveform monitor and vectorscope display help keep your video levels within spec and allow you to easily fine-tune both incoming and captured video.

    ADVANCED AUDIO
    Audio is an essential part of any production. dpsVelocity provides real time 8-channel audio mixing and monitoring, with real time parametric EQ for audio sweetening. Tracks can be muted or soloed, and if you need more audio channels, you can automatically mix down additional audio tracks for real time preview. Audio control nodes can be created on-the-fly by using the sliders during playback, and voiceover and analog-style scrub make working with audio easy.

    DPS VIRTUAL TAPE FILE SYSTEM™ (VTFS™)
    The uniquely flexible DPS Virtual Tape File System provides seamless and transparent integration and file interchange with other graphics, animation, and compositing systems. Each frame of video is simultaneously available in ten popular image file formats, including TGA, BMP, and TIF. Animation sequences can be rendered directly to the VTFS, then easily accessed for playback and editing.

    DFX+ ADVANCED COMPOSITING AND IMAGE PROCESSING
    Included with dpsVelocity is Digital Fusion DFX+™, the advanced resolution independent compositing and effects software from eyeon. DFX+ is designed to allow you to easily add a professional finish to your productions and video sequences. DFX+ will allow you to move quickly from concept to final production with the same speed, precision, and productivity as the award-winning Digital Fusion™.

    DFX+ expertly combines an incredible toolset with benchmark speed, bringing expensive high-end capabilities to the cost effective desktop. With a powerful flow-based process, comprehensive tools and many high-end plug-ins available, complex compositions and designs can be achieved with ease. Direct timeline integration with dpsVelocity makes it easy for users to harness the power of DFX+ directly from the editing timeline. DFX+ effects such as glows, defocusing and warps can be applied to clips from the dpsVelocity timeline.

    DFX+ features broad format support of over 20 professional image and 3D file formats, with a groundbreaking multi-threaded design that gets the maximum performance out of multi-processor systems. Other features include the Text+ advanced character generator, format and aspect ratio conversion, powerful spline controls to animate any tool, and polygonal effects masks that can be animated to apply effects to user definable regions. DFX+ can be expanded via optional modules to include highly advanced features such as tracking, advanced keying, film import, 3D depth tools, network rendering and more.

    BUNDLED TOOLS ENHANCE SYSTEM CAPABILITIES
    Even with everything that's built into dpsVelocity, you may want to add additional tools to your tool kit, and dpsVelocity is fully compatible with a wide range of third-party applications. In addition to eyeon's DFX+ compositing and image processing software, applications for DVD authoring, audio sweetening and character generation are bundled. Plus, every dpsVelocity system includes the dpsReality™ software application, the ultimate tool for compiling and outputting animations.

    DVDit!™
    dpsVelocity is ideal for producing DVDs, giving you all the tools needed from start to finish. After creating DVD-compliant MPEG-2 files directly from the timeline, use the bundled Sonic DVDit! authoring software to author them into a DVD with menus, buttons and chapters, and output it directly to a broad range of DVD and CD recorders. For users with more advanced DVD authoring needs, MPEG-2 files created with dpsVelocity are also compatible with a variety of other third-party DVD authoring packages.

    CAYMAN GRAPHICS POWER CG™
    For titling, the Power CG RFS character generator plug-in from Cayman Graphics is included. Fully anti-aliased characters with an effective resolution of better than one nanosecond can be sized, compressed and expanded on the fly and positioned anywhere on the screen in single scanline/pixel increments. Characters, edges and shadows can even be drawn with user-definable textures such as marble and wood grain.

    SOUND FORGE XP STUDIO™
    For advanced precision audio sweetening and manipulation, we include Sonic Foundry's Sound Forge XP Studio. This comprehensive digital audio editing package includes a wide range of tools, including normalization, pitch bending and shifting, smooth/enhance, noise gate, file format conversion and more.

    Leitch Debuts Version 8.2 of dpsVelocityQ™ and dpsVelocity® NLEs

    April 7, 2003 - Las Vegas
    Leitch Technology Corporation (TSX:LTV; NASDAQ:LVID) today unveiled its new version 8.2 software for the award-winning dpsVelocityQ™ multi-stream non-linear editing system and dpsVelocity® dual-stream NLE.

    dpsVelocityQ 8.2 and dpsVelocity 8.2 sport a new interface style featuring a new color scheme, new flexible interface customization options, timeline picons and the uniquely powerful EyeCon View™. EyeCon View continuously displays the picons and clip timecode of all visible layers based on the current playhead position, providing constant visual reference for all layers on the timeline while scrubbing and aligning clips, and making it easy to precisely align specific frames across layers.

    “As editors use more and more layers in their projects, it becomes increasingly difficult to maintain an exact visual reference when aligning and editing all of these layers,” said Brad Nogar, Leitch vice president and general manager for post production. “Our EyeCon View feature provides an elegant, effective solution, making the relative editing of multiple layers easier and more efficient than ever before. We’ve also made over 100 subtle changes in the interface and editing tools in direct response to user requests, which all add up to an even faster and easier editing experience.”

    Additional new features common to both dpsVelocityQ 8.2 and dpsVelocity 8.2 include native file export to Leitch VR™ servers, support for Windows® Media Format version 9, and support for Direct-X audio plug-ins in the timeline. Advanced Authoring Format (AAF) and OMF import and export will also be offered through a new specially priced Interoperability option. OMF functionality was developed in conjunction with Trakker Technologies, developers of conversion tools such as Slingshot. “Our new optional OMF and AAF support makes it easy for users to interchange projects and media between our products and other post production tools,” said Nogar. “This easy interoperability will be a tremendous benefit for collaborative workflows and for users upgrading to dpsVelocity or dpsVelocityQ from other non-linear editing platforms.”

    dpsVelocityQ combines powerful, flexible and intuitive software with the dpsQuattrus™ multi-stream real-time hardware, forming a tightly integrated, advanced multi-layer NLE solution that delivers an exceptional combination of real-time power, quality and affordability. dpsVelocityQ features real-time, full-quality playback of four streams of video, up to six graphics streams, and four channels of 3D DVE. dpsVelocity features the same software interface running on dual-stream real-time hardware, featuring real-time performance of two video streams, two graphics streams, and an optional single-channel 3D DVE. dpsVelocityQ and dpsVelocity are available as fully integrated, “ready to run” turnkey solutions, or as boardset-and-software bundles for installation into a Windows® 2000 or Windows® XP workstation.

    dpsVelocityQ 8.2 and dpsVelocity 8.2 are expected to be released in Q2 2003. dpsVelocityQ 8.2 will be available as a free download for all existing registered dpsVelocityQ users. Similarly, registered users of dpsVelocity version 8.0 or 8.1 will be able to download the 8.2 upgrade free from the Leitch Web site, at www.leitch.com. Specially priced upgrades to dpsVelocity 8.2 will be available for existing users of dpsVelocity version 7.6 or earlier.
