AI video stabilization, CMOS correction, and image optimization for MAGIX Video deluxe and Video Pro X.
Mercalli MAGIX Plug-Ins
Capture every moment – perfect videos with just one click!
Whether you’re a news editor, event videographer, drone pilot, or ambitious hobby filmmaker: That one, unique moment needs to be captured right now.
There’s no time to set up a tripod, calibrate a gimbal, or get the lighting just right. Just point and shoot!
That’s exactly what the Mercalli MAGIX plug-ins are for.
Focus on your subject—Mercalli will take care of the rest later in your MAGIX editing software.
Thanks to the brand-new artificial intelligence (AiA), you can even salvage and perfect footage you would have otherwise given up on.
Your benefits at a glance:
- AI-powered stabilization: Smooths out even extremely shaky and blurry footage fully automatically and naturally.
- Includes the Picture Enhancer plug-in: Optimizes exposure, colors, and contrast fully automatically – for a perfectly balanced final image right on your MAGIX timeline.
- Effortless restoration of long scenes: While simple image-effect stabilizers often take a long time to process long sequences, Mercalli analyzes even extensive footage quickly and with exceptional practicality.
- With Mercalli, you can eliminate complex sensor distortions (CMOS wobble/jello effect) and stubborn rolling shutter artifacts without compromise.
- When the built-in features of your editing software are no longer enough, Mercalli can still save your videos.
- While plug-ins reach their limits with CMOS distortions caused by extremely severe vibrations and impacts, these can be corrected with Mercalli SAL.
Superior CMOS correction and stabilization compared to native stabilizers:
- Smart Zoom Instead of Significant Image Loss: While conventional stabilization effects often zoom in very aggressively, Mercalli dynamically adjusts the zoom level to match the action in the frame. You retain the maximum possible field of view with minimal loss of resolution.
- Fisheye & Ultra-Wide-Angle Perfection (up to 179°): Standard tools often produce unsightly optical distortions in action camera and drone footage. Mercalli stabilizes while precisely accounting for lens distortion. You have the flexibility to choose: keep the fisheye look or straighten the image seamlessly.
- True CMOS & Jello Removal: Where simple stabilization features fail in the face of severe vibrations, Mercalli eliminates complex CMOS errors and jello effects without compromise, directly on your MAGIX timeline. (Mercalli SAL offers additional options)
- Precise Camera Profiles & Defishr Option: The plug-in already includes a comprehensive selection of predefined lens profiles that are perfectly sufficient for the vast majority of use cases. For the absolute best correction results, you can use proDAD Defishr to measure individual camera intrinsics and integrate them into Mercalli SAL.
- Full flexibility & control: Fine-tune the stabilization using precise parameters to match your exact preferences—for a natural, organic result without artificial distortion effects.
Smart workflow and maximum performance in your MAGIX editing software:
- Includes Picture Enhancer: Not only does it eliminate camera shake, but it also automatically and dynamically corrects and enhances exposure, color, and contrast all at once.
- Automatic Cut Detection: While standard stabilizers stop at cut points and must be applied to each clip individually, Mercalli automatically detects scene changes. This allows you to stabilize entire film segments or raw footage in a single pass.
- Practical for Long Scenes: While simple visual effects can slow down the project when working with long scenes, Mercalli is optimized for fast, highly efficient analysis in everyday editing.
- Supports formats up to 16K+: Integrates seamlessly into your MAGIX timeline and handles massive resolutions up to 16K (and beyond), as well as an enormous variety of video and image formats.

NEW: Real time stabilization for all your video material
- Real time live performance
- No analysis needed prior to stabilizing
- New stabilization profile “Fixed Cam” added to remove all movements achieving an ultra-stable look (especially suited for interviews, stage recordings and documentary shooting with long telephoto lenses)
- “Content aware fill”: empty borders resulting during the stabilization process may optionally be filled by matching content of nearby picture frames
- Correcting simple rolling shutter effects
- Stabilization profiles for common applications like:
- “Glide Cam”: The virtual camera follows smoothly the movement of the real camera and removes sudden and shaky movements.
- “Sports Cam”: The virtual camera generally follows the fast movement of the real camera and smoothens sudden and shaky movements.
- “Science Cam”: Comparable stabilization to “Steadycam” but without limitation and edge fill. (Well suited to evaluate parameters and optimize settings.)
- “Fixed Cam”: The virtual camera is set to a fixed point without following the real camera.
- “Steadycam”: (floating camera) The virtual camera follows the movements of the real camera more subtle so that sudden movements are being avoided.
- Extensive detail options to control stabilization
- “Diagnostics”: technical information is being displayed
- Overlay display visualizing the stabilization to optimize settings
- Overlay display to evaluate processing time vs. real time performance
- Score display to evaluate real time capacity vs. degree of stabilization
- Supports up to 256 cores for faster processing or computing higher resolution or framerates in real time
NEU: Real time video optimizing for all purposes
- Real time life performance
- No prior analysis needed
- Suports up to 256 cores for faster processing or computing higher resolution or framerates in real time
- Automatic optimization of contrast and brightness according to picture content. Balancing uneven levels of contrast and brightness within a video sequence. Optionally the image may be divided into separate areas. This allows to treat (for example) the sky differently to the ground.
- Brightness, dynamics and color saturation can additionally be finetuned manually.
- “Safe Colors” forces values to stay within the YUV limits. This optional setting may be important working within a studio/broadcast environment, because values out of this range cannot be displayed correctly.
- Works internally within native color space RGB; YUV-444; 8bit / 10bit
proDAD Mercalli Stabilizr PRO for Magix and proDAD Mercalli CMOS-Fixr PRO for Magix
Both plugins share the proven and further optimized and accelerated comprehensive video analysis as basis of the very robust and versatile image stabilization. This intensive processing – only needed for complex cases – guarantees stable footage even under exceptionally demanding circumstances.
Compared to the real time plugins these are the differences in handling and use case:
- Performance: supports high end hardware architecture (up to 256 cores) enabling a fast analysis as well as a fast frame rendering
- The all automatic stabilizer can very comfortably be applied to multiple clips.
- Interactive overlay charts for an easy detection of critical zones in a video sequence to manually optimize the degree and quality of stabilization.
- Highly increased sharpness in stabilized video because of less need to zoom in due to new algorithms especially with interlaced video
- Less degree of zoom-in results in a higher resolution and preserves more wider angle
- Fading in and out stabilization allows an easy and fast stabilization of shorter areas of a video sequence with no need to splice the clip
- Spheric videos up to 170° can be stabilized maintaining the spheric view
- Stereoscopic 3D footage can now be stabilized
- Comprehensive set of camera profiles for numerous lenses
- Extremely robust against obstacles like:
- Other objects
- Extreme light conditions
- Image noise
- Plain areas (like for example a white sky or a water surface without any visible structure or contrast)
- Overlay display visualizing the stabilization process to further improve settings.
- Works internally within the native color space: RGB; YUV-444; 8bit/10bit
