| CINEMA CRAFT HDe AVC Encoder | |
| Award Winning 4th Generation H.264 Core Encoding Engine | |
| Unique Features | |
| Advanced Motion Detection | Exclusive unique motion detection algorithm |
| Automatic Scene Detection | Precise scene change detection |
| Advanced Adaptive GOP Structure | Automatically optimizes for the best GOP structure for each GOP |
| Multi-Pass Encoding (Up to 99) | Every time it adds a pass by referencing the past encoding history, the picture quality automatically improves |
| Virtual Multi-Pass Encoding | Performs multiple Quantization passes during a single pass |
| Encoding Mode | CBR -- Single Pass / Multi-Pass (up to 99) |
| VBR -- Single Pass / Multi-Pass (up to 99) | |
| Encoding Speed -- Quality / Normal / Fast | Up to 2 times faster than real time |
| Control Window User Interface | |
| Calling setting windows and encoding | |
| [Basic Settings] | |
| Stuffing Bits into VBR Stream | Enabling this option for VBR streams instructs the Encoder to “insert bits” for scenes in which the bitrate is below the specified minimum bitrate |
| Coding | Picture AFF and Macroblock AFF |
| [Segment Settings] | Automatically inserts an I-frame at the scene change |
| I-Frame Insertion | Ability to change the frame you specify to an I-frame |
| Editing Quantize Matrix | Ability to edit Quantize Matrix |
| [Filter Settings] | Multi-functional Filter Sets: |
| Proprietary Pre-filtering | Dithering, Error Diffusion, Pixel Values, Black Level, Q. Characteristics, Luminance, Quantize, Grain, Texture, Spike, Blur, Low Pass, High Gain, Region |
| Pre-filtering with Preview | The Preview function enables the user to apply a Filter while confirming the visual effect in real time |
| [Effect Settings] | Special Effects such as Monochrome, Black, Super Black, |
| Effect Window | and White. Also for applying a specified Matte |
| Effect Window With Preview | The Preview function enables the user to apply a Special Effect while confirming the visual effect in real time. |
| [VBR Detail Settings] | |
| Segment Re-Encoding | Re-Encodes just a segment you specify |
| Bitrate and Quantization Scale Graph | Ability to see bitrate fluctuations or quantization scale on the graph and optimize the structure of each GOP |
| [Inverse 3:2 Pulldown Settings] | |
| Inverse 3:2 Pulldown | Highly accurate detection by 2-pass inverse 3:2 pulldown |
| Additional Features | |
| Setting Pictures' Temporal Position | Specify and displays pictures' current temporal location |
| Recoding Pictures' Temporal Position | Timecode or frame entry and chase scratch pad |
| Playback Functions and Jump Controls | Extensive variable picture review playback controls and speeds |
| Frame Finder | Frame Finder is used to find a frame by scanning pictures with a slider control (Scrubbing) |
| Listing Display for Setting Positions | A List that indicates timecodes of various types of settings that you have set, and can navigate to quickly |
| Sub Image View | Sub image view is a magnifier exclusive for CC-HDe. There are six Sub image views: Type, Size, and Mode settings can be set independently for each of them |
| Saving Displayed Image as a Bitmap File | It saves the displayed image as a bitmap file |
| Picture Analysis Tools | Magnifying tool As is Custom Display Dark Mode Bright Mode Blue Only Mode |
| Picture Display Setting | Source Decode Source : Decode Source : Filter Filter : Decode |
| Split Display | The Screen can be split into two, Horizontally or Vertically, in order to display any two from source, filter output, and decoded output at the same time |
| Region of Interest | Its function is to specify pictures' temporal region in order to treat the region effectively |
| Pictures' Display Field Setting | Specifies whether to display pictures as frames or as fields |
| Batch Encoding | Ability to Batch Encode all of the entries in the list |
| Concatenation | Ability to concatenate multiple source files (same type) into one AVC Stream |
| Replace | Facilitates partial replacement of the existing source file --- down to one frame |
| Mark Position | While encoding, you can mark time codes that you can reference later |
