The Video SpiceRack software contains eight effects, five of which are transition effects and three image processing effects. Each of these offers, in turn, a catalog of 200 Video SpiceRack masks which you can use to design your effects individually.
The Video SpiceRack masks that blend your scenes into one other are based on effects designed by Pix?lan Software.Two hundred of the best effects have been selected from their library, licensed and redesigned for the Casablanca Avio and the Casablanca Kron.
Each one of the 200 Video SpiceRack masks offers variable settings that enable you to adjust the direction of movement, select borders and set the transition length.

2. Minimum requirements
Video SpiceRack requires a Casablanca Avio or Casablanca Kron video editor, 64 MB of RAM and at least OS version 1.5 of the Casablanca Avio or the Casablanca Kron software installed on your machine (you can see the version number of your particular OS listed in the information box within the "System Settings" screen).
Note: If you have not yet upgraded to OS version 1.5, you should contact your dealer and request a copy. Once you get the new OS, you will need to reinstall it. (If this is the case, please be sure that you are not working on an ongoing project, since reinstalling will delete all the data from your hard drive.)
