VideoStitch And VLC Update 360-Degree VR Tools

VideoStitch released version 2.2 of its 360-degree video post-production software. The update brings support for the H.265 video codec, compatibility with Nvidia's GTX 10-Series of graphics cards, and other features that are supposed to make it easier for video editors to work with 360-degree content. Among those features are feathering that improves blending of input videos; better audio and motion synchronization; and support for Apple's ProRes line of video codecs to allow VideoStitch Studio to "retain high quality during the editing process" and play nice with other software. The update also includes rig presets for automatic stitching. VideoStitch said many of the current presets are for 360Heros rigs, but it plans to add more in the future. All of these added features are supposed to help VideoStitch's latest software make the creation of 360-degree videos easier than ever. "With the new version of VideoStitch Studio, we give professional 360-degree content creators a great new tool that will save them a lot of valuable time during the post-production process without compromising the quality of their output,” VideoStitch CEO Nicolas Burtey said in a statement to Tom's Hardware.
