CGM TV Releases New Filter Updates For FCP

CGM TV has released updates for the CGM DVE line of filters and effects. The CGM DVE line are designed for expanding the filter and effects palettes of Final Cut Pro and Final Cut Express. The updates feature new filters and workshops. According to MacQ Productions:

Thanks to being written in FCPis "native language" all CGM transitions and filters function seamlessly, fully supporting YUV rendering as well as AltiVec, multiprocessing in OS9 and OSX. Furthermore they are designed to render at the subpixel level, ensuring smooth movement within the rendered clip.

A final advantage is that the 2D and 3D effects are actually "true" FCP transitions rather than After Effects filters (which may require cutting and pasting and often suffer from luminance shifts as they do not render in YUV space). All plugins support progressive video (25p, 24p, 30p, ...) and the G5 and RTExtreme HD architecture of Final Cut Pro 4 HD and Final Cut Express 2.
