Description:
Cinema Craft® 3D and 3DMX encoders accurately processes synchronized stereoscopic content faster than realtime, out-performing all other
competing products on the market. This application is optimized for the fastest models of Intel XEON Haswell v3 processors, plus earlier models as well, and remains the premiere encoding engine used by Hollywood for 3D Blu-ray delivery.
