Ki Pro Quad v5.2r3
• 10-bit sample depth. Preserves subtle gradients of 10-bit sources (perfect for green-
screen compositing, graphics or color correction) with no visible banding artifacts.
NOTE:
Ki Pro Quad can accept 12-bit inputs but processes and encodes at 10-bit.
• I frame-only encoding. Ensures consistent quality in every frame and no artifacts from
complex motion.
• Variable bit-rate (VBR) encoding. “Smart” encoding analyzes the image and allocates
more bits to complex frames.
• Low data rate requirements make for more storage options and require less drive space
to store high quality video.
• Optimized for efficient real-time effects.
