Welcome to smartMedia's documentation!
======================================
smartMedia is a fully customizable multi threaded media converter, ingestion
and delivery tool that runs standalone and inside Nuke. It lets you convert
image and video based media from one format into another. SmartMedia uses Nuke
under the hood to convert your media. Due to Nuke's node based workflow this
mean absolute control for your media conversions and due to that smartMedia
goes way beyond a traditional media encoder. Think of it as a tool that solves
the following:
- I want to convert my video sources into image sequences and vice versa.
- I want to convert my video sources into different video formats.
- I want to convert my image sequences into different image sequence formats.
- I want to apply slate and burnin information to my renderings.
- I want to create full deliveries containing many outputs to my client in an
easy way.
- I want to trigger custom code before or after rendering in order to update.
my database, get a spread sheet automatically written, and much more.
smartMedia provides a rich preset system that you can fully customize to your
needs. You can quickly create new presets with minimal effort using our preset
creation wizard and further define it to your needs afterwards if needed.
Presets can then be applied to multiple sources in one go to batch create the
needed outputs for your projects including custom slates and burnins.
smartMedia is customizable in many details and provides a variety of settings
that you can adjust to your needs. And if you have some Python knowledge you
can take over full control and trigger any additional logic on various events
and run custom functions on any selected task.
smartMedia can be run standalone and inside Nuke and is python-3 and python-2
compatible.
