Capture Magic SD Publisher Description

Capture Magic SD records quality DV, DVCPro25 and DVCPro50 direct to disk from multiple cameras. Capture Magic SD builds upon the high quality scopes and monitors provided by Big Mug Software's Monitor Magic and adds a never seen before feature on the Apple Mac: simultaneous direct to disk recording from multiple DV, DVCPro25 and DVCPro50 cameras. Recording directly to disk minimizes the need to buy and carry new tapes, gives you much more storage capacity, and lessens the chances of corrupt or dropped frames caused by problems with tape. Also new in version 1.1, we build upon this and support time-lapse and top motion recording straight to disk. And when it is time to edit your video, all your footage is waiting and ready for you.

Capture Magic SD has these great features:

Support Standard definition consumer DV, DVCPro25 and DVCPro50
Record multiple DV cameras at the same time
Record directly from camera straight to disk
Time-lapse recording.
Stop animation support.
Preview monitor with helpful guides
Scaling and flipping preview to support many types of lenses
Weighted Waveform Monitor
Colored Waveform Monitor
RGB Parade
Weighted Vectorscope
Colored Vectorscope
Luminance Histogram
RGB Histogram
Pause input for accurate analysis

OS: PPC/Intel
Requirements: Mac OS X 10.4 or later is required. Minimum hardware is a 1 GHz G4 or Intel based Mac with at least one Firewire port. Your video cameras must connect via Firewire and output DV, DVCPro25 or DVCPro50.
Whats new:
Version 1.2: Support for the Apple Remote so that you can initiate and stop recording from across the room. The Apple Remote ships with many of the current Macs and is usually used for Front Row. QuickTime files now conform to Apple's Production Level of Conformance When attempting to Quit, a warning is given to let you know that you are recording a file. A visual indication that files are being written to disk is given on the Sources window. Bug fixes in 1.2 QuickTime files now display correctly when viewed with QuickTime Player. Previously the aspect ratio was incorrect. Labeled the sampling slider in the Devices tab within Preferences so it is more obvious what it does.
