[. . . ] Media files can be manipulated in hundreds of ways such as intensity, coloration, color effects, position, rotation, and more.

Professional AVC H. 264 Codec Maxedia 4, the latest version software, features a host of upgrades including an entirely new video engine that uses the latest high-performance professional video codec. [. . . ] Additionally, a variety of matrix plug-ins is available specifically designed for fixture arrays like LEDs. Add an effect in just a few seconds instead of using hours on re-rendering and recompiling. Maxedia pixelmapping - video to DMX Imagine taking the video from your LC Series LED panels and extending it to hundreds of moving heads or any other DMX controlled device, effectively making each fixture a single pixel of the video image. The Maxedia pixelmapping engine can control a multitude of fixture types from RGB to dimmer and can even take control of the CMY color mixing of moving heads for perfect synchronization of video with lighting. Consider the stage a canvas and colorize it using the Maxedia system instead of generic color presets from the lighting console. Multi-screen edge blending Each Maxedia engine contains its own screen edge blending settings, as well as settings for keystoning and warping, which allow corrections to parallax, alignment, distortion or projection size. A Maxedia output can be split into three distinct outputs, and each output can be individually keystoned and edge blended. Maxedia edge blending eliminates banding by blending together the three outputs to display a seamless single image for exact eye-catching graphics. Large media library Maxedia comes with DVDs of media content, containing a wide variety of video files, still images and animations to get you started immediately. All media import is handled by the Maxedia Media Manager and an easy to execute backup routine conveniently puts all stock and custom media files in one archive. The Maxedia Content Navigator allows viewing of the DVD content before importing into the Maxedia system. MaxNet - Maxedia Networking Today's media server setup requires complete integration between each system. For this purpose we have developed MaxNet, a zero-config network-based protocol which connects Maxedia and Maxxyz lighting console systems together in one unified platform. Additionally, Maxedia uses the CTIP 1. 1 protocol for information exchange with compatible systems such as Martin's Maxxyz controller. This greatly simplifies a programmer's workflow by displaying on the lighting controller a thumbnail preview of each media's file and cues. Maxedia in the real world Visual imagery plays an ever important role in stage, set and architectural designs and no media server on the market can create stunning graphical displays more easily than Maxedia.
