Intelligent Gadgets will debut the Windows version and a host of new features for its multi-user review and approval tool syncVUE at this week's SIGGRAPH exhibition in Boston.
In response to interest in the Mac version of syncVUE that debuted at NAB last April, the eagerly anticipated Windows version offers the same feature set. syncVUE allows animators, editors, producers, directors, anyone in fact - to experience a synchronized, shared media viewing experience with no geographical limitations
. Time-code based annotations added in a syncVUE session (whether offline or online) automatically propagate to all connected clients for a smooth, efficient "review and approval" process and all metadata can be easily exported to Final Cut Pro and common file formats including XML. Windows-XP and Mac-OSX syncVUE users can freely collaborate in the same session.
New for SIGGRAPH is syncVUE's "VLP" feature (Virtual
Laser Pointer), which allows anyone in the session to quickly point and draw on top of the movie in real-time during playback. In addition, a new graphics overlay layer allows users to create non-destructive, vector-based graphics that can be exported along with the underlying video frames. All current syncVUE users will receive the upgrade at no charge.
