MovieMach Icon Movie Machine Pro
An Application That Combines Video overlay, Tv-Tuner, Framegrabber and Video Editing on one Board


The MOVIE MACHINE PRO combines four features on one board: VIDEO overlay, TV-Tuner, framegrabber and VIDEO editing. The MOVIE MACHINE PRO digitizes true color with studio quality regardless whether the source is an external composite video signal or the internal TV-Tuner. The live video may be sized or positioned anywhere on the computer screen. The digitized image can be stored at any time as TIFF or printed out for further uses. No scanner could be faster! Naturally you may put any of the input signals or stored images back to video.

Connect your local antenna or cable to the MOVIE MACHINE PRO and you have Instant-TV on your desktop. The fully software controllable TV-Tuner provides you with live news, sport magazines or simply comics whenever you click on your TV icon. The smart TV software offers ready-to-run channel tables from over 120 countries equipped. Want some more? Just start the automatic program search which will find your favorite TV station.

The software option MMStudio provides you with your own Private Desktop Video Studio. You can "cut", "mix", or "zoom" any combination of the live video sources and see the instantaneous results on a video monitor or record them to a VCR. A realistic image of a T-Bar controls effects like "wipe", "flip", and "move". In addition, composing images into the live video is supported by color-, chroma- and luma-keying. With the MMEffectEditor you may even create your own effects for use in the MMStudio.

In combination with the CODY board you can record and play back movies from and to video. The CODY digitizes a live video source directly onto your harddisk. Once digitized you may use it in NEXTIME, edit or play it back to video again.
