Pablo Rio launches its eighth update in less than a year

The new software includes support for XAVC, Apple ProRes 422, the latest RED cameras, and Avid effects shaping.

Quantel has just released another major update for its high-quality Pablo Rio color correction and finishing solution, as well as for the Pablo PA workflkow improvement software. This is the eighth update presented by Quantel in less than a year.

The new version focuses on the integration of all post-production flows, adding support for import and export in Apple ProRes 422 and more integration for Avid effect shaping. Support for even more file formats is also now included, including 4K XAVC export, as well as support for the latest RED cameras.

Support for Apple's ProRes 422 includes encoding to ProRes 4444, ProRes 422 (HQ), ProRes 422, ProRes 422 (LT), and ProRes 422 (proxy).

The new software also supports Avid DVE metadata shaping. This means that it is possible to perform any rotation, scaling, flip or flop of any DVE during offline in Avid and transfer them directly to Pablo Rio and Pablo Pa, saving time and increasing productivity in online sessions.

The latest version also includes support for the RED V5.0 SDK as well as for DRAGONcolor and REDgamma4. The release includes many other new features that add capability, operational simplification and speed such as: Mocha Tracker DVE Homography (ability to track an object and the tracking data pin as it changes), Blur normalization (automatically taking into account the image resolution applies a certain level of softness or blur), or one-button access to the multi-layer timeline on the Neo Nano color panel.
