Newsmeldung von slashCAM: Grass Valley Canopus announces to FireCoder of rudi - 8 Jun 2006 08:09:00 So have, for all those not yet heard: one for Thomson Grass Valley, Canopus, and is now part of Grass Valley. The first new product in this situation now announces the Canopus Grass Valley at FireCoder. Here it is a PCI Express-based hardware encoder, the video files to MPEG-2 and MPEG-4 format converted. The card includes a Firewire port's for capturing, editing and exporting of DV and HDV material. There are many tools like the Ultracoder, MPEGcraft 3 DVD and one EDIUS plug-in, allowing the user has the ability to convert video files to MPEG-2 and MPEG-4 format using the hardware acceleration faster than real time, MPEG clips to trim easy to combine many files together to convert files in batch mode (batch conversion), and automatic conversion with the help of watch folders. Since the MPEG encoding by hardware and not affiliated with the system CPU is performed, the user during the encoding process to carry out further work. In addition to the MPEG-2 and MPEG-4 format is synonymous FireCoder the encoding of MPEG-1, DivX and WMV support directly. That raises only the question of why the Procoder is not mentioned. Finally, such a card just for people with high-volume transcoding and thus for the Procoder targeting may well be very interesting. The card is pretty much s.end August for 324 Euro.

Antwort von mkrawietz:
So, if I understand correctly, which is a quasi-Procoder in hardware format.
In my current box (P4 3 GHz), the part would certainly be worth the gold (it takes just too long for the moment when it comes to creating DVD's), but what will happen geschwindigkeitstechnisch in Comparison to a dual Woodcrest machine (so 4 cores) with Pro Coder?
So I'm excited about the first time comparative still (yes, there's no Woodcrest) nor the Fire coder.
