screen compositing, graphics or color correction) with no visible banding artifacts.

complex motion.
• Variable bit-rate (VBR) encoding. “Smart” encoding analyzes the image and allocates
more bits to complex frames.
• Low data rate requirements make for more storage options and require less drive space
to store high quality video.
• Optimized for efficient Real-Time effects.
