Professional and Consumer Media Software using OpenCL
More and more professional media software now has support for OpenCL. It starts to be a race where you cannot stay behind. If the competitor runs more than twice as fast on the same hardware, then you just can't say "Sorry, you should buy NVIDIA hardware". I expected this to happen, but could not tell in what industry they would run fastest. Seems it is fluid dynamics, video-editors and photo-editors. AMD and Intel mostly have been selected as collaboration partners. Apple has been a main drive, especially with the introduction of their new MAC Pro with two high-end AMD FirePro GPUs.
Sony Catalyst Family Sony released three new software packages to support video professionals in pre- and post-production.
This new family of products, Catalyst Browse (media management), Catalyst Prepare (video preproduction assistant) and Catalyst Edit (4K and Sony RAW video editing) has OpenCL support from the start.
Colorfront Express Dailies and On-Set Dailies This software is an on-set dailies processing system (playback and sync, QC, colour grading, audio and metadata management). The 2014 versions have OpenCL support in their transcoder plugin, Transkoder.
