Cinema Craft Encoder SP allows you to directly encode AVI, QuickTime and DV files into pristine, DVD compliant MPEG-2 streams, or beautiful MPEG-1 streams for delivery on CD-ROM or the Internet. Cinema Craft SP gives unprecedented control over the MPEG encoding process and delivers professional results in record time.

Features
  • Advanced Motion Detection Algorithms
    Most encoders use a conventional algorithm based on the exhaustive search. This method has inherent flaws and is much more susceptible to encoding errors caused by things like noise in the source video. Cinema Craft's advanced "multiple high-speed scan" algorithm resolves these problems and increases the quality of the final output video.
  • Automatic Scene Change Detection
    The Cinema Craft encoder uses an advanced forward scanning technique to identify scene changes and use them as points for keyframe (I-Frame) insertion. This allows for cleaner scene transitions and more accurate seeking during playback. Cinema Craft SP also allows you to manually set keyframe (I-Frame) insertion points, great for inserting pin-point accurate chapters in DVD titles.
  • High-Performance Pre-Encoding
    During Automatic Scene Change Detection, Cinema Craft SP also performs an additional step that involves high-performace pre-encoding of your source video data. This produces data that contains important bitrate to distortion ratios that are used to assure the production of a high quality and stable MPEG stream.
  • Variable Bit Rate Encoding
    Most software MPEG encoders support both Constant Bit Rate (CBR) and Variable Bit Rate (VBR) encoding. But very few (if any) support true multi-pass VBR the way Cinema Craft SP does. VBR encoding provides the best utilization of the MPEG-2 bitstream by analyzing the motion of the video being encoded and varying the bitrate accordingly; More action, more bitrate, less action, less bitrate. This generally leads to higher quality video and smaller file sizes which is always good.
    Multi-pass VBR takes this one step farther by making multiple passes through the video, each time revising the bitrate structure generated from the previous pass. This used to be the realm of high-end hardware encoders, but now it's available right on your desktop
