The BD PowerStation™ provides everything your business needs to deliver replication-ready Blu-ray Disc titles. Featuring Hollywood-proven encoding, authoring, and emulation technology, the BD PowerStation enables you to launch your Blu-ray business using a proven platform that's ready to scale as your clients' demand.
Dual Format Blu-ray Disc and DVD Support
Save time and future-proof your DVD titles. The BD PowerStation's unique design enables video professionals to publish the same project to two formats - Blu-ray Disc and DVD-Video - a huge time saver. When you've finished authoring, simply select your desired target and publish to the format of your choice. You can even publish to DVD-Video today and re-publish using BD at a later date, future-proofing your catalogue.
Hollywood Proven Technology and Player Compatibility
Proven technology you can rely on. The Sonic BD PowerStation is built on the same proven core as Sonic's high-end production system, Sonic Scenarist®.
Cinematic-quality Encoding with Sonic CineVision
Stun your clients with cinematic-quality encodes that take your Blu-ray Disc and DVD titles to a whole new level. Sonic CineVision® is built on over ten years of DVD and Blu-ray Disc-focused development dedicated to providing the professional production community with encoding and authoring tools that deliver the highest possible production quality via an intuitive and efficient user experience.
Advanced Encoding Parameter Control
Extensive access to the low level encode settings as well as optimized presets for fast turnaround. CineVision features unique access to the low-level encoding parameters including fine control of motion searching, GOP structure, and powerful adaptive quantization controls.
HD Motion Menus and Slideshow Creation
Create professional looking titles in minutes with drag-and-drop creation of fully animated HD menus and slideshows. Choose from a huge library of menu templates - or create your own - and build fully interactive high definition motion menus with motion background and buttons - all within one powerful authoring interface. You can also create beautiful HD slideshows using PowerStation's built-in slideshow compositor. Include up to 999 HD slides, choose from 65 slick transitions, and build an audio playlist with unlimited audio tracks - all combining to produce a professional slideshow that takes minutes to create.
BD-ROM Replication Support
Burn a one-off DVD/Blu-ray title or send your project off to replication for high volume production. Once you've finished authoring the BD PowerStation provides you with the control to deliver to whatever format you choose with comprehensive copy protection support. Create one-off BD-Rs, DVD-Rs or DVD/Blu-ray premasters for replication.
Comprehensive BD-ROM Emulation with Scenarist® QC
QC your finished Blu-ray title straight from your hard drive with Scenarist QC - professional emulation software with unique debugging capabilities and playback logging. Scenarist QC provides Blu-ray Disc authors with a comprehensive QC emulation environment, enabling you to view finished BD productions directly from your computer's hard drive at the same time as viewing valuable debug information.
