AMD APUs, GPUs accelerate latest creative tools and productivity enhancements
AMD announced that its ongoing collaboration with Adobe has brought forth numerous performance optimizations aimed at new creative functions and workflow enhancements that will be available soon to video professionals using Adobe Creative Cloud.
This latest wave of features includes high performance debayering for REDTM camera R3D media files, enhanced performance designed for new masking features, followed by a new time-saving master clip capability and other tools.
The announcement from its part builds on the already impressive additions the companies have made available in recent months, which began with OpenCL support through the Adobe Mercury Playback Engine to accelerate Adobe Premiere Pro CC workflows.
AMD App Acceleration via the open standard OpenCL API brings the massive parallel compute power of AMD A-Series APUs, AMD Radeon graphics, and AMD FirePro professional graphics to bear on the sophisticated capabilities within Adobe Premiere Pro CC, Adobe SpeedGrade CC, and Adobe Media Encoder CC. That performance also scales with AMD dual-GPU configurations, plus dual AMD FirePro GPUs for the latest generation Apple Mac Pro systems.
