About Real-Time Deliverables

The Real-Time Deliverables mastering solution allows you to perform certain types of operations on material during clip output without having to first render the clips. For example, you can output from a master source format to many output formats directly to tape without rendering. Using the concept of the Deliverable—a virtual clip containing real-time operations and linked to its original source clip—you can create and manage multiple real-time output formats from one clip.

Supported operations include:

- Resize
- Pan and Scan
- Application of 3D and 1D LUTs
- Frame rate change with deceleration or acceleration with 2:3 insertion
- Audio timewarp
- Letterbox overlay

The Real-Time Deliverables feature supports source material up to 2K (10-bit) depending on the hardware setup. Good performance may be achieved beyond 2K (10-bit), but is not guaranteed. Soft effects are not supported for real-time output, unless processed before output. Embedded audio is also not supported.

Real-Time Deliverables sections explain important concepts and workflows for how to manage, preview, and output real-time operations, and references other sections of the user guide for more details, where appropriate.

Make sure to follow the hardware requirements described in Hardware Requirements for Real-Time Deliverables.
