RELEASE: MovieStreamer HLS 1.2

New Versions, Release Notes, MovieStreamer HLS
What’s new in MovieStreamer HLS 1.2 ?
  • General Stability and performance improvements
  • UI changes
  • Added multiple simultaneous destinations (FTP, Amazon, Local)
  • Added the creation of a .mov Quicktime File simultaneously (with custom or auto naming)
  • The .mov file is “edit-ready”: you do not need to wait the end of the recording to use it, but you will need to reload it in your application to see the new content. This is different to what MovieRecorder does with the edit-while-ingest files which don’t need to be reloaded.
  • Improved connection to FTP
  • Folders are now “cleaned up” when starting a new record
  • Added warnings when destinations are not writable

RELEASE: Create Final Cut Pro X Multicam files automatically
13 Feb 2012
Filed in:
New Versions, MovieRecorder, MovieRecorder Control
MovieRecorder and MovieRecorder Control have been updated today to allow for easier integration with Final Cut Pro X.

With MovieRecorder Control 2.1 you can now create multicam clips for Final Cut Pro X automatically without any need to do anything else manually.

MovieRecorder is the natural companion to Final Cut Pro X when working in a multicam environment. With the appropriate hardware, multiple streams can be captured on one single MacPro (up to 8 SD or 4 HD)using the corresponding number of MovieReorder licenses. In addition to its multiple channel ingest efficiency, MovieRecorder has a multicam feature so that users can start editing the multicam clip while the file is still being recorded.

When working in a multi-cam environment, the usual workflow would be to first start the recording for each angle, then find the files in your shared storage, import the files in Final Cut Pro X. Then you would select all of the media you have just imported and select File > New Multicam Clip from the menu. Next you would have to make sure to select the proper settings to make the multi-cam clip. And finally once the multi-cam clip is created, you will have to create a new project and drag and drop the multi-cam clip in the project. Only then can start you working with multi-cam.

The “Softron Way” - When using MovieRecorder and MovieRecorder Control, you click on the gang record button in MovieRecorder Control to start recording all the camera angles at once, then just wait a few seconds for all the work to be done for you. MovieRecorder Control will import all the camera angles, create the multi-cam clip and the project for you in Final Cut Pro X . And you can start editing your multi-cam clip immediately, while it is still being recorded. Easier then that is just not possible. You can also just store the XML file for a later use if you want to edit your multicam clip later on.

Download the DEMO versions of MovieRecorder and MovieRecorder Control today and find out for yourself.

Note that MovieRecorder Control 2.1 requires MovieRecorder 2.3b6 or later.
