Trial-KXF
Enables unparalled run time adjustments of file-based assets with no perceived quality difference
Program duration changes of up to +/- 20%
Based on Alchemist File technology, Kronos File offers the very best in motion compenstaed image performance and audio pitch correction
Now with Adaptive Cadence Technology, enabling a single pass retime of media containing cadence
Now with Protected Segmnent Processing to preserve duration in key areas, such as credits, commercials or clock
Guarantees consistent quality with no user intervention – optimal results first time, every time
Typical applications:
Global broadcaster has a need reduce the duration of a program in order to fit more adverts into their playout schedule
Media provider needs to create space to promote other valued content
A faciltiy needs to change the run time of a file to fit a specif slot in the playout schedule
GV File V3.0 - What's new?
Kronos File Supports protected segments which can be defined in the xFile Client or based on an externally created marker file
Kronos File also now benefits from Adaptive Cadence Technology, enabling a single pass retime of media containing cadence
HDR to HDR processing to and from PQ / S-Log3 / HLG
HDR (PQ / S-Log3 / HLG ) down conversion to SDR (BT709 / REC601) using Grass Valley's Advanced Tone Mapping
SDR (BT709 / REC601) up conversion to HDR (PQ / S-Log3 / HLG )
Decoding of AAC audio is now supported for all relevant source file types.
Processing times have been reduced by up to 40%; the exact performance improvement will be system and conversion specific (positive improvements have been measured in most cases).
Timecode overlay
Enhanced audio routing – now fully flexible!
Prores decoding and encoding now enabled on all 64-bit operating systems
Added decoding of 32KHz, 44.1KHz and 96KHz audio
Added support for up 32 audio channels per stream (where appropriate)
Added non-adaptive HDR to SDR down mapping mode
Added custom transfer curves to tailor up/down/cross mapping
BT2020 and HDR metadata now included during encode (where appropriate)
Added decode and encode support for DNxHR wrapped in MXF OP1A
Added DNxHR 4:4:4 decode and encode
Audio channels can now be grouped for off-speed conversion to maintain respective phase
Improvement to small object performance for high frame rate Ph.C conversions
Added Full Screen Stretch conversion mode and overscan controls
Added 'Follow Input' (source resolution) mode, when generating Apple ProRes files
Added support for Nvidia RTX GPU family.
For full details of all improvements, upgrades and added functionality see release notes.
