We proudly present the new Character Generator filter - our latest product, designed to take the titling capabilities of your applications to a new level and simplify development at the same time. Most importantly, the new filter allows you to work with all overlay item types (text, graphics, images and Flash) via a generic interface. The previously available Text & Graphics Overlay and Flash Overlay filters will be replaced by this new product.

What's new:

  • Generic interface for text, graphics, image and Flash overlay items
  • Built-in support for news tickers (including crawls and rolls) with automatic file tracking
  • Support for item groups & compositions
  • Smooth change of item size, position, transparency, background or view area
  • Item movement, acceleration, fade in/fade out and entrance/exit effects, animation sequences
  • New text and image effects: Shadow, Glow, Motion Blur, Rotation, etc.
  • New graphic figures: rectangle, ellipse, triangle, star, etc.
  • XML-based configuration
  • .SRT subtitles support
