[Avid-L2] Re: Blackmagic buys Teranex

 

Then I can only conclude that the core programming is what is deficient when people have compression and other artifacts when using Avid and other software to export a file rather than playout and recapture through an HD-SDI food chain. I would think a dedicated chip set would be the most overall time and quality efficient solution but not the most cost effective depending on the users needs. So all the issues I've read over the years about compressor messed this up or encore doesn't handle this well etc.... and the best way to go is an Alchemist or Teranex is because of the superior coding and overall software design and algorithms in those lines of products. Well it will be interesting to see what BMD does with the technology. The fact that Teranex is willing or have to be bought by BMD must mean they aren't doing as well as they have in the past. Is the market for their high end products shrinking? Is this another indication of the Race to the Bottom? More will be revealed.
