DrasticPreview SDK

Overview

With the DrasticPreview SDK, your application can:

Open common production media file formats
Play and display their video and automatically attached audio content
Access metadata information embedded in the files
Control playback, positioning, speed and active area
Optionally access AJA, Bluefish444 and other video boards for output

The DrasticPreview SDK will automatically search out sidebar audio and metadata files, allowing your application to access them as a cohesive unit.
