This software enables high-quality conversion of SD video to HD within your video application of choice.
One of the most convenient features of the software is the list of preset resolutions that allows easy integration of DV video into your next HD production. When scaling from SD to HD, Instant HD's algorithms generate the missing pixels with integrated sharpening and anti-aliasing to ensure clarity and sharpness.
The software comes with essential controls that allow users to specify output size, sharpness, anti-aliasing, filter types, and quality settings. Users can preview their results within seconds, making it easy to make adjustments before finalizing projects. The integrated anti-aliasing and sharpening controls ensure that the final product is clean and devoid of any unnecessary fuzziness or jagged lines.
Instant HD also includes 40 resolution presets that cater to the most popular screen sizes. Users can also enter custom sizes to render their projects to any resolution they prefer. The software will select the most effective scaling option for the desired resolution, and its Lock Aspect Ratio feature helps avoid image distortion or unnatural stretching.
One of the software's most significant assets is the Resizer 2.2 plug-in, which was integrated into Instant HD following Red Giant Software's acquisition of Digital Anarchy. The plug-in offers users greater speed, a host of resizing controls similar to Instant HD and integrated deinterlacing controls. This addition makes the software even more versatile.
The software is fully compatible with a variety of host applications, including Adobe After Effects CS3, 7, 6.5, Adobe Premiere Pro CS3, 2.0 (Windows Only), and Apple Final Cut Pro 6, 5.1.4. Instant HD is a great software option for video content creators who want to work with SD clips but deliver sharp and clear HD results.
