mrv2

Visual effects, animations or computer graphics, in general, are industries that typically need to review large and complex projects that pack dozens of files and sequences. Not only does this data needs to be properly reviewed, but you are like to do comparisons and editing throughout the process.

mrv2 is a tool designed as a second generation for the infamous mrviewer and packs some upgraded features to help you review sequences, VFX and other similar files.

As previously mentioned, the developer presents the tool as the second generations for the famous mrviewer. You will be greeted with a similar interface, although it is slightly more modern and packs a few more extra options.

The file format support includes the typical movie files as well as common sequences, such as OpenEXR, Cineon, RED3D, BRAW or PPM, for instance. The features are similar and what you normally expect from a professional player, including audio and management, Non-destructive EDL, Passive 3D Stereo Support, VR support or OpenEXR multichannel and multipart support.

To justify the title second generation, there are some upgraded features that you might find useful. The app supports environment mapping in both spherical and cubic formats, which can be useful for creating 360-degree videos and virtual reality experiences.

A/B comparison is a feature that enables you to compare two different versions of the same footage side-by-side, which is useful for evaluating changes made to a shot. The app also supports environment mapping in both spherical and cubic formats, which can be useful for creating 360-degree videos and virtual reality experiences.

Mrv2 is a program that would fit well in any context that entails reviewing, small edits and managing video footage along with image sequences.
