NVIDIA’s new GeForce RTX Super GPUs join forces with Intel’s 10th generation H-series CPUs in RTX Studio laptop line

03 Apr

NVIDIA has announced the arrival of ten ‘Studio’ laptops announced that use Intel’s newly-released 10th generation H-series mobile processors. The NVIDIA RTX Studio-branded laptops include the company’s newest GeForce RTX Super GPUs. The RTX Studio notebooks come from Acer, Gigabyte, MSI and Razer, with new RTX Studio laptops from HP to be announced in the coming weeks.

All the announced RTX Studio laptops include NVIDIA’s flagship RTX 2080 Super Max-Q GPU and Intel’s 10th generation H-series mobile processors. Each Studio laptop is designed and catered to creatives, and thus include features important to creative enthusiasts and professionals. For example, the Acer ConceptD 7 Ezel and ConceptD 7 Ezel Pro laptops have built-in Wacom pen support and include color-accurate touchscreen displays. The MSI Creator and Razer Blade 15 Studio display 100 percent of the DCI-P3 color space, which is important for videographers. It is worth noting that some RTX Studio notebooks include 100 percent coverage of the Adobe RGB color space as well.

In total, 10 new RTX Studio systems were announced today. They each focus on different features, but all cater to creative applications. The Acer ConceptD Ezel 7 and ConceptD Ezel 7 Pro feature Acer’s Ezel design allowing flexibility in usage and have Wacom pen support. The Gigabyte Aero 15 OLED and 17 HDR machines include 4K OLED displays and display 100 percent of the DCI-P3 color space. MSI’s Creator 15 and Creator 17 notebooks have 4K IPS displays and can display 100 percent of the Adobe RGB color space. The Razer Blade 15 models have a striking aluminum unibody design and 4K OLED displays.

Magix celebrates 10th birthday with biggest ever performance update

20 Jun

Video editing software package Video Pro X has received what is described as its biggest update yet, to mark ten years since Magix Video Pro was launched. Owner Magix says the update focuses on speed and performance, and includes new tools to make editors’ lives easier.

Magix says that rendering HEVC/H.265 video can now done using the NVIDIA GPU encoder making export much faster than before, while AVX optimization speeds up image processing and improves the accuracy of color correction.

The company also says it has introduced easier methods for working with overlapping audio and video clips, and that its effects interface is now more clearly organized. Green screen work is improved, as is the package’s ability to handle and manipulate 360° content, and users can now edit stereo video footage as well.

Magix Video Pro X costs £299 / $ 399 and is available now. For more information visit the Magix website (link below).

Press Release:

10 Years of Video Pro X: MAGIX publishes the largest update in the history of the video software

On the occasion of the software’s 10 year anniversary, MAGIX Software is introducing the largest update for Video Pro X ever to the market. The anniversary version of the professional video editing program includes numerous new functions and improvements for significantly more power, productivity, and design flexibility.

The latest Video Pro X has arrived. Right on time to mark the anniversary, the powerful video processing system from MAGIX offers an extensive program of intelligent new and optimized features that help ambitious users to achieve high-end results even faster than ever before.

FOCUS ON PERFORMANCE

The most recent update from MAGIX had already put a strong focus on increased performance. However, the new version introduces the largest performance leap ever. For the first time, HEVC/H.265 video export can now be rendered with the NVIDIA GPU’s encoder. This makes export speeds possible, which were inconceivable in the past. Also new to the latest version is the comprehensive AVX optimization in the internal image processing and the 3-way colour correction resulting in faster image processing and much more precise output quality during colour conversion. Additionally, the output of 4K source videos into FullHD quality has been optimized by reducing high-frequency image components. This results in fewer bit errors during the conversion of high-resolution recordings.

MORE PRODUCTIVE WORKFLOWS

With the new Video Pro X, MAGIX pushes ahead with its workflow optimization strategy. The latest improvements include the new time-saving J-L cut and the intuitive “Move object content” mouse mode. With J-L edits, video and audio tracks can now be modified individually without losing the advantages of working with grouping. For video editors who work regularly with overlapping objects, such as spoken audio spanning several scenes in documentaries and interviews, work will become noticeably easier, and object content can now be moved more flexibly. From now on, users can intuitively select and adjust image content from video objects with a click of the mouse while maintaining the editing rhythm.

NEW EFFECTS AREA & OPTIMIZED CREATIVE TOOLS

The Video Pro X effects area has been enhanced and is now more clearly organized and user friendly than ever. Users can quickly navigate to the effects they want and control plugins much more intuitively meaning the creative workflow stays uninterrupted. Chroma Keying has also been optimized in response to customer feedback. A new algorithm supports the ability to recognize and extract objects. 360° editing was also improved. 360° image stabilization, a set of spectacular 360° transitions, and special 360° effects from HitFilm now supplement the Video Pro X 360° editing package. And now even stereoscopic videos can be processed by Video Pro X.

“10 years of development have been invested in the new Video Pro X. We would like to introduce the largest update in the history of Video Pro X as a way to say thank you to our loyal customers. Without the continuous feedback from the Video Pro X community, the software would by far not be as sophisticated and powerful as it is today,” says Florian Liepold, Product Owner Video Pro X at MAGIX.

Video Pro X comes with a year of Update Service free of charge. So, users who now decide to purchase the software will automatically receive any upcoming updates. For example, the flexible anchor point positioning, an intelligent function that helps to individually select the object focus – for maximum design flexibility while scaling and rotating.

All new Video Pro X features at a glance:

  • Accelerated export with NVIDIA NVENC support
  • Optimized workflow including J-L cuts
  • New effects area and In-App Store
  • Precise chroma keying
  • Improved Full HD output quality
  • Complete 360° package, including HitFilm effects
  • AVX-optimized algorithms
  • OpenFX interface with multithreading
  • HEIF image import for optimal support of iOS devices
  • Includes Update Service for 1 full year of all new features

Long Shot 2017 is Saturday, June 10th. Will you be shooting?

08 Jun

Here in Seattle, we are pretty excited when summer arrives. Granted, the warm weather doesn’t actually get here until sometime in mid-July, but that doesn’t stop us from leaving the socks at home and heading out without a raincoat (and then complaining about the inevitable rain and hashtagging all of our Instagram photos with #junuary).

One of the ways we celebrate the coming of summer is with the Photographic Center Northwest’s (PCNW) Long Shot – a global 24-hour photo shoot that is open to anyone, anywhere, with any camera (yes, including your phone). Long Shot isn’t a competition; it’s an opportunity to take a day to focus on photography, share what you capture and see what other photographers are doing. It’s also a way PCNW raises awareness and funds to support its photographic mission.

This year’s Long Shot is on Saturday, June 10th. Between 9AM Pacific on Saturday and 9AM Pacific on Sunday, participating photographers around the world ‘chase the light’. You photograph whatever you want, wherever you are. If you register (there is a $ 20 suggested donation), you can submit up to 5 favorite images from the day and a jury will pick one of your images to include in the annual Long Shot slideshow and pop-up exhibit in Seattle on June 17th. You don’t have to attend the pop-up to participate, and you don’t have to participate to attend the pop-up.

“Ode to 18th Century” by Anna Ream | Long Shot 2016

If you choose not to register, you can still take photographs and share them on social media using the hashtags #longshot2017, #photocenternw and #pcnw. Your images won’t be included in the slideshow or exhibit, but you’ll still be part of a worldwide community of photographers taking part in a fun event.

Take a look at the Long Shot 2016 slideshow to see what last year’s participants photographed. (Note: There are a lot of beards.) What will you photograph this year, if you participate?
