Besides standardisation and data compatibility, the essential advantage of
MPEG-2 is a highly efficient compression method that affects respective
groups of pictures (GOP) of the original material when generating the digital
data stream. Equipped with SmartGOP technology, the Pinnacle
DVD1000 can edit MPEG-2 videos frame-by-frame even within the
compressed groups of pictures.
What makes this product special, however, is its incorporation of classic
post-production in real time in other words, without time-consuming
software rendering. A real-time effects mixer outputs entire productions or
creative ideas to the video monitor in full quality as soon as they have been
arranged.
What you get!
MPEG2 with DVD1000
Productions created with DVD1000 can be output to analogue
(S-VHS, Hi8,) or digital tape systems (DV) or stored as a file. Files are saved either in AVI format or, for compatibility with other MPEG-2
systems, as separate streams (e.g. video elementary and audio PCM).
Optionally, the IBP compression method can also be used. This material is
suitable for use in the Internet or for subsequent processing with DVD
authoring software.
SmartGOP
The I-frame myth: It has been published that I-frame is the only MPEG-2 video compression format that can be edited frame accurately. This is not true. I-frame offers no advantage for accuracy with today's technology. Though fully compatible with I-Frame for open systems support, Pinnacle Systems DC1000 and DVD1000 use a patented SmartGOP technology thatallows 100% frame accurate editing of the IPP format they use to capture video.
SmartGOP is the prerequisite for the ability to use MPEG-2 videos with IP
encoding and low data rates for non-linear video editing. Click here for a more detailed explanation of how SmartGOP / IPP editing works!
TitleDeko
TitleDeko always creates titles in the same resolution setting
as the Premiere setting. Titles never have to be recompressed
which means they are always crisp on the edges and the soft
edges stay soft.

your creativity.
There is no doubt that DVD has become the delivery format of choice for video professionals and consumers alike.
The convenience, quality and flexibility of this format allows video editors to present their work in a number of
languages, from a variety of angles, and with a choice of soundtracks, all on a single disc. Unfortunately, this power
was often out of reach, as DVD authoring systems were overly complex and prohibitively expensive. Pinnacle Systems
is now delivering DVD creation to the desktop with the introduction of an affordable, yet full featured, professional
DVD and CD authoring system: Pinnacle Impression DVD-Pro.
When used in conjunction with one of the many DVD burners now on the market, Pinnacle Impression DVD-Pro
allows you to quickly and easily define, and structure, your content prior to burning, augmented by a host of
powerful features. In addition, Impression DVD-Pro supports DVD content on CD for use with PC-based playback
systems.
Pinnacle Impression DVD-Pro includes a comprehensive menu system, which will allow you to assign any number
of menus or sub-menus for navigation. Impression DVD-Pro also supports full motion, animated menus for
unparalleled creative expression.
Much of the power of the DVD format lies in the ability to access more than one stream of content at any given time.
Pinnacle Impression DVD-Pro is a truly professional DVD authoring system that fully supports Multiple Video
Angles, up to 32 separate Subtitle Tracks and up to eight Independent Audio Streams for multiple language or
soundtrack support.Pinnacle DVD1000 specs & features
The next generation of video is digital and MPEG-2 is the world-wide digital
standard. With the DVD1000, Pinnacle Systems offers a
non-linear video editing system that meets the highest quality standard for
MPEG-2 productions. The standard according to which the Pinnacle
DVD1000 works is known as “4:2:2 Profile at Main Layer"; its abbreviation,
422P@ML, is considered to be a mark of ideal qualitative prerequisites for
non-linear video editing.
The DVD1000 comes with more than 200 cross-fades and
dissolves that run instantly in real time. The DVD1000 processes analogue (S-Video, CVBS) and
digital (DV, IEEE-1394) signals via corresponding inputs and
outputs in real time. Furthermore, the card's effects
mixer is also suitable for titles and filters. The combination of MPEG-2 hardware codec and real-time effects mixer
marks the advent of dual-stream technology on standard desktop
computers. No comparable video editing system offers more productivity,
since processing is visible instantly in full-quality video. In addition, videos
can be processed for digital data media such as DVD.
MPEG2-IP is ideal for use on standard computers, since it makes optimum
use of the available bandwidth of these systems and supports high quality,
multi-file playback. This fulfills the prerequisites for realizing real-time
effects on standard PCs.
For the first time, this technology makes it possible to edit compressed
MPEG-2 groups of pictures frame-by-frame without a loss in quality. The
SmartGOP software manages the compressed groups of pictures
belonging to a video and permits direct access to individual frames.

Why to edit with IPP and deliver with IBP
MPEG-2 video has gained considerable attention for its reputation of storing digital video of very
high quality at considerably low data rates. This is accomplished through a technological
innovation in digital video compression that looks at full frames and partial frames of video data to
produce full bandwidth signals. MPEG-2 video efficiency has created such innovations as digital
video streaming, CD-ROM video distribution and DVD.
When working with MPEG-2 video there are basically three forms of compression that can be
used. These are I frame only, IPP, and IBP.
I-Frame only MPEG-2 is older MPEG-2 technology that does not take advantage of true MPEG-2 efficient compression techniques. For every frame of video from the source material a frame of compressed video is created and stored on the
hard disk. This is known as "intra" frame compression where every frame is basically the same size. It is similar to
the older M-JPEG format in its high data rate and large hard disk storage requirements for storing high quality video.
The I-frame myth: It has been published that I-frame is the only MPEG-2 video compression format that can be edited frame accurately. This is not true. I-frame offers no advantage for accuracy with today's technology. Though fully compatible with I-Frame for open systems support, Pinnacle Systems DC1000 and DVD1000 use a patented SmartGOP technology that
allows 100% frame accurate editing of the IPP format they use to capture video.
IPP MPEG-2 video delivers a true data rate advantage for high quality digital video and storage. IPP is made up of a set of frames or "group of pictures" (GOP). The GOP consists of one I frame and is followed by a series of predictive or "P" frames. The P frames are the secret to the low data rate. Each P frame stores only that part of the video frame that has changed
from the previous frame. This allows broadcast video quality at data rates 50% more efficient than I-Frame only making is the
best MPEG-2 format for professional video editing.
The video captured and edited on the DC1000 and the DVD1000 is full bandwidth 4:2:2 YUV true
color ITU.R 601 specification for broadcast quality.
IBP MPEG-2 video is the preferred format for video streaming. It is an even more highly compressed format of MPEG-2 that consists of very long GOPs made up of I frames, P frames and complex Backwards looking frames known as "B" frames.
B frames fill in frame spaces between I frames and P frames by looking backwards from the P frame to the I frame. This format can not be edited frame accurately easily and would take so long to decode for editing that it would be an
unsatisfactory post-production experience.The Pinnacle Systems DC1000 and DVD1000 export completed IPP video editing projects to IBP
streams for use in the built-in CD-ROM and DVD authoring software. This provides the best use
of next generation MPEG-2 technology and it’s quality per megabyte advantages.
MPEG-2 Video Format Characteristics Common Applications
I Frame Only
No advantages in quality or efficiency.
Used by costly editing systems where SmartGOP™ technology is not used.
IPP
Provides broadcast quality video with twice the efficiency of I-frame only.
