or uncompressed 8-bit presets, the appropriate Matrox codec will be set for
rendering your video previews. If you create a custom sequence preset using
a Matrox codec editing mode, you can specify the Matrox codec that you want
to render your video previews. For more information, see “Defining your video
preview settings” on page 69.

About the Matrox 10-bit editing workflow
Matrox MXO2 supports a complete 10-bit editing workflow in Adobe Premiere
Pro to give you the highest quality video. This means that you can capture and
export clips to Matrox 10-bit uncompressed format for use in your sequence,
render your video previews to Matrox 10-bit uncompressed format, and output
your sequence at 10-bit on Matrox MXO2 for preview or export to tape.
°To use a Matrox 10-bit editing workflow:
1 Create your sequence using one of the available presets under
Uncompressed 10-bit. This automatically applies the appropriate settings
for your video previews (the rendering codec is set to Matrox 10-bit
uncompressed and maximum bit depth is enabled).
2 When you configure your video output settings on Matrox MXO2, set the bit
depth for your video output to 10-bit (see “Specifying your video output
settings” on page 56 and “Specifying your video output settings (MXO2
Mini)” on page 61).
3 Capture your clips to Matrox 10-bit uncompressed format for editing in your
sequence (see “Specifying your video capture settings” on page 71).
4 If you add Matrox effects or other software effects to your sequence, you
must render these sections in order to output them at 10-bit. Only 10-bit
uncompressed clips without effects or with GPU-accelerated effects, and
video previews that have been rendered using the Matrox 10-bit
uncompressed codec can be output at 10-bit.
¦NoteYou can also export your sequence to a Matrox 10-bit uncompressed .avi
file as explained in “Exporting to a Matrox .avi file” on page 85.
