TestVid Reactor converts your TestVid audio and video from the fully uncompressed raw native format to various high quality industry standard file formats.  All conversions are done at high bit rate in YCbCr color space to avoid any unnecessary degradation in quality.  Output formats from 10 bit YCbCr MOV and DPX, 8 bit YCbCr AVI, MXF AVCi 100*, V210/YUV sequences are losslessly converted.  Broadcast formats like MXF DNxHD*, XDCam, DVCPro and MOV ProRes are also supported for convenience.  Markers, blips/tones, time code, frame markers and cropping can also be added to the conversions.

TestVid Reactor 

TestVid Reactor is a high precision conversion tool for converting TestVid sequences and test patterns to industry standard file formats, while maintaining the highest possible quality in the target format. Select a drive, and all the TestVid clips on that drive are immediately loaded for selection, each with its clip information and a picon for quick identification. Set the file type and location along with any processing, and begin the transcode.

Features

TestVid Reactor finds any TestVid clips on a selected drive, and displays them in a scrollable list for selection. A picon and clip information help you quickly identify and select a clip.

Similarly, scroll through available file types to set the type of file you are going to create. And use the same intuitive point and click strategy to set the location you want to save the clip into.

There are checkboxes to add processing to the converted clips. You can add bars plus tone or black plus silence sync frames at one second intervals,  add time code and replace the audio with specific test tones or channel IDs. Use the pulldown menu to set any cropping.

The frame rate may also be adjusted in the test pattern files.
