Grass Valley EDIUS Neo 3 - Create Anything

Featuring a basic, entry-level range of tools and features, our EDIUS® Neo 3 software is ideal for those new to video editing. Yet, it also provides powerful nonlinear editing features common to all EDIUS solutions, such as real-time, multi-track, mixed-format HD/SD editing, chromakeying, titling, and both Blu-ray Disc and DVD authoring.

Built on the same highly-acclaimed technology as our EDIUS application, EDIUS Neo 3 software offers native editing of various formats including AVCHD, HDV, DV, Windows Media, and QuickTime—and now also supports CANON EOS DSLR video—and provides a seamless, real-time workflow that supports mixing all formats on the same timeline. And you can upgrade to the full-featured version of EDIUS at any time.

EDIUS Neo 3 also faetures a new Source Browser function to automatically search for video contents inside removable media. Efficient editing is possible while preserving the original image quality, with no loss of resolution or frame rate. Enables real-time playback of three or more streams without special hardware. (Verified in internal tests on computers with Intel Core i7 processors.)

No Special Hardware Required

**Supports Intel QuickSync for ultra fast h.264 encoding with appropriate Intel SandyBridge CPU/Motherboard combinations**

EDIUS Neo 3 runs on a laptop as well as a workstation system and can input/output video from any OHCI FireWire (IEEE 1394)-compatible hardware.

EDIUS Neo 3 HDSPARK includes EDIUS Neo 3 NLE software and the HDSPARK hardware board for high-quality synchronous HDMI and analog audio monitoring. EDIUS Neo 3 FIRECODER Blu includes EDIUS Neo 3 NLE software and the FIRECODER Blu hardware board for high-speed Blu-ray Disc authoring. Whichever configuration you choose, you can always add an HDSPARK or FIRECODER Blu board to your EDIUS Neo 3 system at any time.

Edit with EDIUS Neo 3 Software

While offering a basic, entry-level range of tools and features, EDIUS Neo 3 still provides you with powerful nonlinear editing features that you will find in all Grass Valley EDIUS solutions, such as real-time, multi-track, mixed-format HD/SD editing, chroma keying, titling and both Blu-ray Disc and DVD authoring.

Nonlinear Editing with HDMI and Audio Monitoring

If you need to see your EDIUS Neo 3 projects' output in real time using affordable HDMI monitors, our HDSPARK hardware solution is ideal. This package includes the PCI Express-based HDSPARK board with a full copy of EDIUS Neo 3 and features an HDMI output board for full-resolution, real-time preview monitoring. It also features embedded HDMI audio and separate stereo RCA jacks for high-quality audio monitoring.

Nonlinear Editing Plus Accelerated Blu-ray Encoding

Based on the PCI Express form factor, our FIRECODER Blu board provides accelerated encoding of Blu-ray Disc compatible video sourced from the included EDIUS Neo 3 nonlinear editing software. You can then output its results directly to a Blu-ray Disc or to a Blu-ray compatible file for additional authoring. The FIRECODER Blu board also lets you transcode between H.264 and MPEG-2 formats; it supports 1080i and 720p as well as native 24p Blu-ray formats. It supports up- and down-conversion of SD and HD sources. Moreover, it encodes HD source materials 2X faster than real time and SD source materials 4-5X faster than real time.
