Defining your Video Rendering and Audio
settings
When you select an RT.X project preset, your Video Rendering and Audio
settings for editing on Matrox RT.X are automatically set for you.
You can specify additional Video Rendering and Audio settings as explained in
your Adobe Premiere Pro User Guide.
¡ Important For the best performance, use only 48 kHz, 16-bits/sample (stereo)
audio in Adobe Premiere Pro.
Defining your Capture settings
Matrox RT.X lets you capture your video to DV/DVCAM or DVCPRO format at
a fixed data rate of 25 Mb/sec, or to MPEG-2 IBP format at a selected data rate.
For example, you can capture to DV/DVCAM or DVCPRO format to create .avi
files for use in your Premiere Pro projects, or capture to MPEG-2 IBP format to
create MPEG-2 Elementary (.m2v) files for use with the Adobe Encore DVD
authoring program.
¡ Important Clips captured to MPEG-2 IBP format are suitable for DVD
authoring, but are not supported in your Adobe Premiere Pro projects.
