About the Matrox 10-bit editing workflow

Matrox MXO2 supports a complete 10-bit editing workflow in Adobe Premiere
Pro to give you the highest quality video. This means that you can capture and
export clips to Matrox 10-bit uncompressed format for use in your sequence,
render your video previews to Matrox 10-bit uncompressed format, and output
your sequence at 10-bit on Matrox MXO2 for preview or export to tape.

°

To use a Matrox 10-bit editing workflow:

1

Create your sequence using one of the available presets under

Uncompressed 10-bit

. This automatically applies the appropriate settings

for your video previews (the rendering codec is set to Matrox 10-bit
uncompressed and maximum bit depth is enabled).

2

When you configure your video output settings on Matrox MXO2, set the bit
depth for your video output to 10-bit (see

“Specifying your video output

settings”

on page

56

and

“Specifying your video output settings (MXO2

Mini)”

on page

61

).

3

Capture your clips to Matrox 10-bit uncompressed format for editing in your
sequence (see

“Specifying your video capture settings”

on page

71

).

4

If you add Matrox effects or other software effects to your sequence, you
must render these sections in order to output them at 10-bit. Only 10-bit
uncompressed clips without effects or with GPU-accelerated effects, and
video previews that have been rendered using the Matrox 10-bit
uncompressed codec can be output at 10-bit.

¦

Note

You can also export your sequence to a Matrox 10-bit uncompressed

.avi

file as explained in

“Exporting to a Matrox .avi file”

on page
