(Oakdale, California - October 12, 2009) SpectSoft LLC., a leading provider of
video solutions on the Linux platform, today announced a new version of the
popular 3d Live solution.
SpectSofts newest system, which debuts at an upcoming Southern California demo
in November offers the ability to take in dual SDI streams, mix them and
feed them out DVI/HDMI or Dual SDI. This offers users the ability to drive a
variety of display solutions, both 3D and standard along with other SDI
devices, all simultaneously. The 2 incoming SDI streams can be from any
source and can be either discreet eyes (right and left eye) or a single SDI
stream that can contain both eyes combined in a variety of configurations
(side by side, over under, etc.).
"The biggest difference between our standard version of 3d Live and the new
Pro version is the SDI in and out, along with an expanded tool-set for the
professional needs", comments Ramona Howard, President of SpectSoft. "We
have worked with many of the well know 3D facilities and individuals to build
in tools that made sense for both a post workflow as well as a production
one, thus allowing them to bridge the gap. Many of these facilities are doing
both the production and the post, therefore we wanted to give them one tool
they could use everywhere".
3d Live Pro adds in frame accurate SDI out, monitoring and adjustments,
machine control and meta-data capture. The ability to adjust parallax, apply
vertical adjustments, monitor RGB streams from each eye, and bring in any
stream/s and spit out any stream/s in a variety of 3D and standard formats.
3d Live is being used for:
Setting up cameras
Monitoring image quality of live streams
Monitoring stereo assurance of live streams
QC of already created/captured material
Creating in real-time stereo images from dual streams (discreet eyes)
Creating in real-time discreet eyes from existing stereo image formats
Creating in real-time stereo images from other stereo image formats
Adjusting stereo images - Real-time frame accurate image adjustment (per
frame)
"We just finished renting your 3d Live for the first time last month, with
outstanding results. Our client used it for a low budget feature, their
previous 3D experience hadn't gone so well, so we were concerned. Their
response was beyond our best hopes. They got more than twice the setups they
had done previously. The producers felt they were seeing what they were
getting better than ever, all because of 3d Live. Last week, we completed our
own production, and we all confirmed what our rental client told us. 3d Live
is a terrific product. Speeds up the work. Keeps people on set in the loop.
You could not have delivered a better product." comments Bernie Laramie,
StereoScope Studios.
SpectSoft will be showing off 3d Live at an upcoming demo in Burbank. The
demos are open to all who are interested. Details are:
November 10
12-5
727 N. Victory Blvd.
Burbank, CA 91502
Private demos can be made by contacting SpectSoft direct.
