Mercury Playback Engine improvements
The Adobe Mercury Transmit feature enables third-party capture cards to plug directly in to the performance of the Mercury Playback Engine.
The feature gives you access to CUDA acceleration and enhanced support for SDI I/O and professional broadcast monitoring.

available on certain Apple MacBook Pro computers.
More CUDA-based video cards are approved for the Mercury Playback Engine. For an up-to-date list of supported cards, see:
