Immendingen, September 30, 2015 – proDAD today announced the immediate availability of its Mercalli V4 Suite for Sony Vegas Pro which includes the Mercalli V4 Stabilizr & Mercalli V4 cmosFIXR plug-ins for the Sony Vegas Pro video editing application, bringing advanced video stabilization and dynamic CMOS sensor distortion correction directly into the Vegas timeline for seamless professional video editing. The Mercalli V4 Suite for Vegas also includes the highly acclaimed Mercalli V4 SAL+ stand-alone application.
The new Mercalli V4 Stabilizr plug-in for Vegas offers a full-auto mode, analyzing selected clips selected on the timeline and choosing the appropriate settings for optimal results, though the user can control almost every step of the optimization manually if desired. The Stabiizr plug-in also provides interactive charts highlighting the critical shaky spots within a clip, assisting the user in finding the optimal correction for the specific scene. The need to zoom-in is dramatically reduced with Mercalli V4 technology, maximizing video resolution.
The new cmosFIXR plug-in analyzes a video clip, learning the camera’s CMOS sensor characteristics and automatically corrects the distortions in the video caused by vibration and oscillations the camera was subjected to, effectively reducing wobble, jello, and vibration jitter. When used with the Mercalli V4 Stabilizr plug-in, the combined CMOS distortion correction and advanced stabilization
“Ever since we introduced the new Mercalli V4 technology platform in December 2014 we have been besieged with requests for a Vegas plug-in” said Andreas Huber, CEO of proDAD Inc. “With the new Mercalli V4 Suite for Vegas Pro, we can now integrate the perfect one-two punch of advanced video stabilization coupled with exclusive CMOS distortion correction, conveniently into the Vegas workflow, to optimize the final quality of a user’s video production.”

Unique to the Mercalli V4 Suite for Vegas Pro plug-ins is the “fade”-option to seamlessly start and end stabilization, bringing to life an oft-requested feature to stabilize a short sequence within a longer shot. In the past, users either made hard cuts or dissolve needed to be applied to achieve this.
