ContentAgent - Key Features
Transcoding:
- Resolution independent high-quality, multi-format
encoding and faster-than-real-time parallel transcoding
- Simultaneous output to multiple formats, resolutions,
frame rates and bit rates from same source
- RGB and YUV 8,10,16 bit processing
- Automatic field order detection
- Image Processing tools for de-interlacing, cropping,
padding, frame rate conversion, 3:2 pulldown, reverse
telecine etc
- GPU accelerated H.264 transcoding – powerful processing
for faster than real-time encoding
- Advanced motion compensated frame rate conversion
- Metadata, logo and timecode burn-ins
- Fully automated AS-11 DPP workflow delivers AVC-Intra
100 (HD) and IMX 50 (SD) files with Op1A MXF wrapping and
associated metadata
- Rewrap IMX, XDCAM-HD, AVC-Intra, DNxHD or DV clips as
Op-atom or Op1a MXF without transcoding
- Workflow Designer provides graphical representation of
all transcoding processes
- Render nodes (Job Agents) create a Render Farm – connect
additional computers (CPU’s) to gain maximum processing
availability and performance
- Colour management – 601/709 colour space conversion,
adjust gamma levels, apply LUT’s to any format, apply RED
RMD colour grade files to RED R3D clips
- Integrated Video Player – playback clips, adjust gamma
and mark DVD chapter points and add locators
- Real-time ingest, including batch capture (via optional
video input card) to multiple formats in parallel*
- Process RED R3D clips for dailes, editoral, accelerate
de-bayer processing by using a RED Rocket card

- Tektronix Cerify, Baton and VidChecker integration for
automated QC (Quality Control)
- Rimage DVD/Blu-Ray automated duplication integration
- QuickTime Reference support – import sequences from Avid
Media Composer and Apple Final Cut Pro timelines to automate
encoding of completed edits
- Fully automated AS-11 DPP workflow with associated
production metadata
