Format flexibility - Liquid supports Avid Open Timeline. Liquid lets videographers edit DV, MPEG I-frame, MPEG IBP, uncompressed, Windows Media, DIVX and MPEG-4 in SD as well as HDV.
Smooth DVD Production - Edit, create titles and effects and then dive into a DVD authoring toolset that lets users define the interactivity, create menus, add a Dolby Digital 5.1 surround mix and then burn a finished DVD.
Integrated DVD authoring - Author interactive DVDs from the Liquid timeline.
Create interactive DVDs, custom menus and preview from the editing timeline - To update your DVD, re-arrange your edit and check your changes from the DVD preview feature. No back and forth between applications.
Native HDV Editing - Edit pure, native HDV video streams - Native HDV editing keeps quality high by avoiding quality crushing and time consuming transcodes.
GPU real-time effects - Liquid uses the Graphics Processor to process real-time effects. By using both the CPU and GPU (graphics processor) to calculate real-time effects, Liquid maximizes real-time processing while editing. More real-time power provides the freedom to preview multiple creative directions.
Avid Open Timeline - Mix HD and SD resolutions with Liquid-supported codecs - Mixing HDV and SD content with multiple codecs gives editors the flexibility to work with a broad spectrum of content to maintain quality and avoid transcodes and renders.
Dolby Digital 5.1 Support - Mix and finish to Dolby Digital 5.1 - Liquid audio engine enables real-time audio mixing including Dolby Digital 5.1. Special surround panners provide perfect control of surround mixes in real-time.
Multicamera Editing - Choose edits from up to 16 cameras - Select multi-camera edit decisions in real-time. Playback the multi-cam clip and select camera angles as the clip plays back.

VST plug-ins Support - Support for industry standard audio effects plug-ins - Add audio effects and tools to Liquid written to the audio industry standard VST plug-in specification.
Background Rendering - Liquid renders effects in the background without interrupting the edit. Create complex composites and layered effects. Liquid previews the effects in real-time and then if final renders are required Liquid will finish the effect without throwing up a render progress bar and stopping the edit.
