Video Purifier updated
Innobits Video Purifier is now updated to version 1.2.1



Innobits Video Purifier removes contaminations in films/videos, for example dithering artifacts, unwanted video noise and unpleasent signatures from filtering processing.

We have been working die hard with this new release and it probably is the best software solution you can get nowadays for removing noise in digitized videos and film. Whether you already have tried out the old version or not, please download the latest version and get thrilled. For your convenience a direct link is included in this mail. Included in the new version are a lot of enhancements suggested by users.

Anyone that uses film or/and video will benefit from using Purifier even if there is no clear evidence of noise in the movie, because the noise will be boosted during further processing.

Innobits Video Purifier removes these contaminations/noise, for example dithering artifacts, unwanted video/film noise and unpleasant signatures from earlier processing. Only noise that shouldn't be in the movie is removed, which means that animated noise is not touched.

Also, Innobits Video Purifier does not "smear out" the noise or put any "new" pixels into the video - it simply uses already existing pixels.

Innobits Video Purifier is the standalone NLE software for you to use as an additional tool of the trade.

The powerful algorithm used in Innobits Video Purifier is "heavy-duty" signal processing even if it is light weighted in respect to CPU time. The limitation in hardware, is the memory bandwidth, not the number of CPU's / cores or other hardware installed. In this NLE software there is a totally new thinking in the Graphical User Interface, making it really easy to learn and use the product. The user will have careful control of what is to be processed; execution is fast and - very important - the range of application is broad, meaning that Video Purifier can be used in and for different situations, e.g.:
  • Removing contaminations before editing/cutting your video
  • Removing contaminations after editing/cutting
  • Restoration of motion pictures
  • In pre/post processing prior the final cut
  • In post-processing equalizing content from different sources and cameras
  • In post-processing restoring video quality for archiving purposes
  • In pre-processing prior to any encoding. Encoding is sensitive to noise/contaminations.
Innobits Video Purifier can process all frame rates and sizes (SD, HD etc). Also, it can scale the source in any format for further processing, using a very advanced 3D FIR technique, which creates marvelous up/down scaling for any need.

OEM and Application Programmers Interface (API)
A programmers API for the algorithm is available for OEM purposes. It could be implemented as a fully adaptive "socket" into any type of application or hardware that uses a video signal. Plug-ins and/or ASIC implementations are available. Please contact Innobits for further information about the OEM alternatives available.

Innobits BitVice
BitVice 2.4 is about to be launched

The new BitVice will be available Friday this week so please check back to our site to grab your copy during the weekend. Included in the new release is among other things a new scaler that supersedes all the other scalers previously in BitVice. The scaler is based on the same technique as in Purifier, that is a three-dimensional FIR filter. We now also are taking motion into account when scaling frames. From now, there is no reason for going to another software for down convert/up convert the movie. The scaler is incredibly fast making it easy and convenient to use.


We have discovered an interesting bug in the interlacing engine in BitVice thanks to our customers. That is also taking care about in the upcoming release. Interlaced video will now be as good as non-interlaced. Also there was a lot of other fixes that makes this release a cornerstone in the BitVice Series.
