Introduction
Control Surface — The Autodesk control surface provides improved interactivity when colour
grading film and video footage. You can perform many of the same tasks you do in the Lustre
user interface using the control surface.
Video I/O — Video I/O is provided by the DVS Centaurus® board, which consists of an HD/
SD board and a breakout box. This configuration provides real-time SDI input and output of
uncompressed 8- or 10-bit HD or SD video in both YUV (4:2:2) and RGB formats (4:4:4 or
4:2:2).
For a list of supported video formats, see the Autodesk Lustre 2007 User's Guide.
Slave Renderer — The Slave Renderer is a rack-mounted server that is connected directly to
the Lustre workstation. It frees system resources by off-loading render tasks on an 'as-needed'
basis, thus ensuring real-time interaction on the Lustre system.
Background Renderer — Background rendering frees up Lustre workstations for colour
grading. You can use up to eight background rendering machines to process your final frames.
