Drastic MediaNXS 4K 6.0.166 (x64) | 90.6 MB

MediaNXS offers a comprehensive range of capture, playback, import and export features for the digital intermediate workflow. Integrate easily with industry standard automation and controllers, and control external VTRs for pull-ins and laybacks. Use onscreen monitoring including signal analysis tools to complement your hardware I/O. Create the files you require from collaboration to delivery with our extensive broadcast and production file format support.

MediaNXS software provides a bridge between the digital intermediate workflow and the real world. User directed, time of day, or set duration record directly to your preferred file type. Edit in Adobe Premiere or Avid Media Composer while still ingesting. Import existing files for playback. Create low resolution proxy files via export for logging and editing, and generate full resolution conforms for downstream processing and delivery. Maintain project-based media pools and settings. Output via Drastic's robust VGA preview for passthrough and output video plus a range of signal analysis tools (vectorscope, waveform monitor, and histogram), with built in metadata display.

Application Compatibility and Conversion

MediaNXS not only supports physical I/O, it also provides transcoding from and to formats used by your digital intermediate software. Direct support for the formats used in Smoke/Flame, Assimilate Scratch, Nuke, Final Cut Pro, Avid editors, Premiere Pro, Digital Fusion, After Effects, Shake, Motion, Combustion and many more. MediaNXS creates both compressed and uncompressed files that are supported directly by these applications. This means no extra steps in moving media between your editing, graphics, color grading and CGI tools and the real world, from creation to delivery.

Crash, Timed and Basic On Set Recording

MediaNXS provides a variety of recording methods and settings.

File Import and Export via Embedded MediaReactor

MediaNXS includes selected components of Drastic's award winning MediaReactor file translation engine. This allows a wide variety of files that cannot be worked in real time, to be imported or exported to file formats that can. The new file will always be to one of the industry standard formats MediaNXS supports for native playback.

Clip Bin and Thumbnail View

Each MediaNXS project features a "Clip Bin" that contains a selected subset of the files available to your system. These files can be displayed as a clip list or a series of thumbnails, limiting the amount of information that needs to be dealt with at one time. Full sorting capabilities make it easy to find your clips, even in very large clip bins.

Metadata

For all records, the metadata set is embedded into the media file where possible, and also stored in a sidebar XML file so that no information is lost. Metadata may be displayed for any loaded clip by selecting the Metadata View tab.

Timeline and EDL Editing

MediaNXS projects maintain a cuts-only conform that may be viewed as a timeline or a traditional EDL (edit decision list). Clips may be added dynamically from the Thumbs view or Clip list. An Add dialog is available for clips not in the Clip list.

Batch Control External VTRs In and Out

Control an external VTR for frame accurate EDL based pull-ins and multiclip timeline based laybacks. Automatically create timelines through EDL batch capture. Exchange and edit timeline components for multiple distributables. Lay back the timeline in one pass and export a matching EDL.

Signal Analysis and Measurement

Built into MediaNXS are preview, vectorscope, waveform YCbCr, waveform RGB and histogram displays. Single link or dual link (hardware-dependent), RGB or YCbCr and file monitoring are supported. These signal analysis and measurement tools provide a general reference to confirm input and playback signal levels, color balance and other information.

Minimum System Requirements:

Windows OS (XP->7, 64 bit), 100 megabytes available on program drive, 1280x1024 GPU (AMD/NVidia recommended), 2 Gigabyte RAM, 2.4 GHz processor (Quad 3.0 GHz for DVHD/MPEG2-100), RAID storage for uncompressed (local or network storage for compressed playback).
