Pooch QuickTime Exporter plug-in released

Dauger Research today announced the first official release of the Pooch QuickTime Exporter plug-in, enabling desktop video editing applications to take advantage of clusters. Using the Pooch (Parallel Operation and Control Heuristic application) and Pooch Pro clustering software, applications such as iMovie and Final Cut Pro can use clusters to generate compressed video more rapidly than before, according to Dauger. The Pooch QuickTime Exporter is a Universal parallel code, offering support to mixed clusters of Intel- and PowerPC-based Macs while counting multiple "Cores" as "virtual nodes" to take advantage of parallel computing both inside a computer and across computers using the Message-Passing Interface (MPI) supercomputing industry standard. The Pooch QuickTime Exporter supports numerous codecs including: H.264, H.261, MPEG-4, Motion JPEG, AAC, Lossless, & MACE. The software requires Mac OS X 10.4 or later running on Intel- or PowerPC-based Macs with 2GB of memory.
