1. Preparation work
1.1 What is lossless editing?
Most of the editing software on the market would damage the film while editing. The quality of
the edited film is worse than the original one as the film was compressed during editing.
BuleEyes Technology can do the lossless editing, no matter how many times you split and join
the film, it would not influence the quality. BlueEyes team develop the lossless editing software
called
Montage
.
1.2 Composition
Montage is composed with three parts: splitting/ merging, mixing iFollow video and chapter
editing.
