Take interlaced video and get the 24p look of film, right from within your editor -- at high speed and high quality.

Start with ordinary interlaced video, apply Magic Bullet Frames' sophisticated algorithms, and you'll get the smoother, professional de-interlaced look of 24p film. Choose between motion-adaptive and field-blended approaches, and you'll get high quality footage at high speeds, right in your editor's timeline.

• New NTSC-to-24p and De-interlacing filters assure fast, high-quality output
• Shoot on low-cost video, and get the expensive look of film
• New plug-ins now make 24p conversion possible in a variety of popular video editing applications
  
  

Filters and Controls

The NTSC-to-24p and De-interlacing filters offer both a field-blended and a motion-adaptive de-interlacing approach that deliver great artifact-free video. Included in the filters are letterboxing and line offset controls to easily create mattes and adjust the image inside the letterbox area.

Fast Quality Conversion

Spend less time rendering. We created two new conversion algorithms: field blending for speed, and a new motion-adaptive algorithm that uses edge line adaptive de-interlacing to intelligently smooth the edges of moving areas in the final frame. Both of these approaches render much faster than previous versions. Speed and quality--what more could you ask for?

More Hosts

Get true 24p conversion in most host editors from interlaced material (including NTSC, PAL, and HD interlaced formats) in Final Cut Pro, Premiere Pro, After Effects, and Apple Motion. The new filters supports greater than 8-bit per channel processing in all hosts. The new package will include Intel Mac support for updated applications.

Features

• True video-to 24p conversion with motion effects from interlaced video
• Integrated letterboxing lets you cut to any desired width
• Fast field-blending algorithm for quick results
• High-quality motion-adaptive algorithm for intelligent smoothing
• Works with Adobe After Effects, Premiere Pro, Final Cut Pro, and Motion
• Removes DV compression artifacts
  

Why to buy?

• NTSC to 24p provides easy film-rate conversion right on the timeline without going to another program.
• De-interlacing offers fast, high-quality conversion for great results without a long render process.
• Flexibility is important in a production environment. Now you can choose to work in After Effects, Final Cut Pro, Motion, and Premiere Pro.
• Integrated letterboxing makes 16:9 output easy.
• 24p conversion includes pull-down addition to assure that clips stay the proper length on the timeline. No clip trimming is required.
• Includes the previous 24p conversion After Effects plug-in for use with legacy projects or matching output to the old Magic Bullet frame rate converter plug-in (Note: After Effects only)
  

What's New?

• New support for more host editing applications, including Final Cut Pro, and Apple Motion
• Fast and high-quality de-interlacing filters
• De-artifacting filter repairs lost color information in DV and HDV source material.
