Booth S4137, NAB, April 23, 2001 - Mathematical
Technologies Inc. (MTI), Providence, RI, announced today that
MTI IntelliDeck® software will be delivered and fully supported
on the SGI DMediaPro family of advanced digital media products
including the Silicon Graphics® Octane2™ visual workstation
with DMediaPro DM2 and the SGI™ 3000 family of systems with
DMediaPro DM3.
MTI IntelliDeck is an array of software modules
that can be flexibly configured for a wide variety of tasks
in film and video post-production and digital film mastering.
MTI offers special software suites using MTI IntelliDeck modules
for targeted purposes. The Restoration Software Suite, for
example, polishes new releases and restores the classics.
It is widely used for mastering feature films and episodics
and for preparing material for DVD or for digital cinema.
The possible software configurations are highly scalable,
ranging from simply emulating a VTR on a workstation or server
to managing server-based telecine control, color correction,
and pan and scan format conversion.
Since its introduction to the market five years
ago, MTI software has leveraged SGI's industry leadership
in computer systems and I/O products for digital video and
audio. With SGI's introduction of the DMediaPro family, all
MTI IntelliDeck software will be available on the Silicon
Graphics Octane2 visual workstation with DMediaPro DM2 and
both the SGI™ Onyx® 3000 and SGI™ Origin® 3000 platforms with
DMediaPro DM3.
"With the introduction of the DMediaPro digital
media products, SGI reinforces its position as provider of
the premier workstation and server platforms for film and
video post-production," said Donald McClure, President, Mathematical
Technologies Inc.(MTI). "MTI embraced SGI's introduction of
industry leading HD I/O products in 1999. We are excited now
to make MTI IntelliDeck software available on Octane2 with
DMediaPro DM2 and on Onyx/Origin 3000 Series systems with
DMediaPro DM3."
"MTI's applications for digital cinema mastering
and restoration have always taken advantage of the capabilities
of the latest Silicon Graphics workstations and digital media
products. We believe that applications such as MTI IntelliDeck,
coupled with the new price/performance of the Octane2 with
DMediaPro DM2, will accelerate film restoration projects around
the world," said Greg Estes, Vice President and General Manager,
Telecommunications and Media, SGI.
