The updated software also allows the selection of audio tracks for DVD content. Letterboxed content is automatically recognised, and the black bars ignored during encoding to give better image quality at a given bit rate. Bug fixes include improved 1080i decoding, and several improvements have been made for better performance, output quality and stability. Elgato claims the Turbo.264 can encode to H.264 up to four times faster than a Core 2 Duo based Mac or 10 times faster than a G4. It can also be used to accelerate H.264 export from programs such as iMovie, Final Cut Pro and EyeTV. The Turbo.264 costs $US99.95/€99.95/$A199.95. |
