Pixela Pixe VRF Browser Now Available

Pixela Corporation (TSE: 6731), a leading manufacturer of PC peripheral hardware and multimedia software, announced today the worldwide availability of its Pixe VRF Browser(TM), digital photo/movie capture editing software for Apple Macintosh.

With Pixe VRF Browser, it is now possible to directly view motion or still pictures recorded with a DVD recorder or DVD video camera on a Mac. Pixe VRF Browser also supports viewing and editing of popular DVD formats not supported by Mac such as DVD-VR. Any movie recorded in the Video Recording Standard is readable, as are DVD-R, VOB format files used for DVD-Video, and +R/+VR files. The downloadable version of Pixe VRF browser is available for $39.95 for Macintosh in Pixela's e-store at www.pixela-1.com.

Pixe VRF Browser is especially designed for users wanting to edit DVD recorded movies on their computer. By using the included "Group of Picture (GOP)" MPEG EDITOR, you can directly edit video from DVD disks. Video from the DVD disk can then be saved as content for DVD-Video authoring. Once captured the file can also be saved as elementary stream, required by popular programs such as DVD Studio Pro. VRF Browser also works in conjunction with Capty MPEG Edit EX(TM), which performs highly precise frame editing. Just like more expensive professional software, frame editing allows for finer, more accurate editing than GOP, enabling you to precisely splice and edit specific scenes.
