AJA Video Systems announced that it has collaborated with Avid to enable the AJA Ki Pro portable digital video recording device to record high-quality Apple ProRes 422 QuickTime files that are directly compatible with Avid Media Composer and Symphony systems via the Avid Media Access (AMA) architecture.
The AJA Ki Pro is a portable, rugged tapeless video recording device that records high-quality Apple ProRes 422 QuickTime files onto computer-friendly media. It connects production directly with post by enabling filmmakers, broadcasters, video professionals and prosumers to skip the process of re-rendering to an editing codec by providing immediate access to full raster edit-ready files directly from camera. Through its AMA plug-in architecture, Avid enables users to connect the AJA Ki Pro media to Mac-based Media Composer and Symphony systems to view, edit and play back ProRes QuickTime files with access to all clip metadata.
With Ki Pro compatibility, Avid Media Composer and Symphony customers will be able to:
. Record hours of pristine Apple ProRes 422 QuickTime media to a removable storage module with built-in FireWire800 for immediate editing and file access on OS X
. Record natively to Apple ProRes 422, ProRes 422 HQ, ProRes 422 (Proxy) and ProRes 422 (LT) for full raster 10-bit 4:2:2 HD/SD
. Bridge proprietary compression schemes by recording to edit-friendly Apple ProRes 422
. Connect any digital camera via SDI or HDMI, or any analog camera with multiple input options
. Convert in real time from SD to HD, or 720 to/from 1080, in full 10-bit quality
. Extend client review capabilities with simultaneous recording to camera and Ki Pro
. Extend productive life of existing cameras and embrace future workflows with powerful conversion capabilities
. Use built-in wireless 802.11 and Ethernet for complete control via a web-browser or iPhone
. Leverage new capabilities planned for summer 2010 including support for 8-channel embedded SDI audio, gang recording with multiple Ki Pro devices via web-based UI and RS 422 device control
AJA Ki Pro support within Avid systems is planned for availability in June 2010. The AJA Ki Pro has supported direct recording of Apple ProRes 422 QuickTime files within Apple Final Cut Pro since its release in 2009.
