H264 encoding with MC 6 WIN

[madmax]

Hello,

we use the Media Composer on Windows.
We need to add H264 export to our workflow.
Would the H264 acceleration also be supported on Windows
in the near Future?

thanks

Hello madmax and thank you for your interest in Matrox products. We presently have full support of our H.264 accelerator on the PC with Avid and Adobe. For Avid http://www.matrox.com/video/en/solutions/avid_Media_Composer/ we areup to 5 times faster without sacrificing quality. We have been and will continue to support this on the windows side http://www.matrox.com/video/en/solutions/encoding/ as well as on the Mac.

Hi,

From the documetation i see that on mac I can directly export
via the MAX Encoder from Media Composer.
Th Documentation fo Windows says that I have to use Adobe Media Encoder.
Is this correct?
Or is there a way to directly export from Media Composer.

best regards
max

Hi Max, this is correct...
On the PC, you need to export the Avid timeline to a QuickTime reference file, then use the Adobe Media Encoder to encode to Matrox MAX H.264


Thanks,
