Fix: Plugin failed to load under Media Composer version 2018.11 or earlier on Mac systems. Improved volume detection for certain media. Support for linking Sony XAVC HS HEVC volumes. Support for new Sony XAVC HS Hi-Res 24 bit and multichannel audio. Support for new Sony XAVC HS HEVC 4:2:0 and 4:2:2 10 bit LongGOP encoded video. Transcode longer clips to constant framerate by third party tools before linking. Note: VFR clips may be linked and played but longer clips may lose audio synchronization. Now accepts clips with variable framerate (VFR) from smartphones for linking. Fix: Random start timecode could appear on clips which actually have no timecode.
Fixed occasional timeout messages during fast scrubbing. Mac version refactored and approved for macOS 11.0 (Big Sur). Improved metadata detection and parsing. Added support for Sony proxy (sub-stream) workflow. Achieving the certification status of Avid Certified Professional in Media Composer demonstrates the ability to use a wide range of advanced tools, including multi-camera and script-based editing, audio mixing and sound design, motion tracking and stabilization, combined with keys, mattes, and paint effects. Improved detection of supported video track. Updated Sony proxy editing workflow instructions. For Sony XAVC HS type proxy clips additional dummy audio tracks are added to match the main recordings number of channels. Set shot marks from Sony metadata as markers on timeline. Added support for multiple AAC multichannel audio tracks. Approved for Windows 11 and macOS 12 (Monterey) (Intel, Apple Silicon via Rosetta 2). For best performance it is recommended to upgrade to macOS 10.15 or later.Įven if your system’s hardware does not meet the requirements for a fluent realtime playback of HEVC, you still have the option to link the clips and then transcode them to an intermediate proxy or DNxHR profile for further processing.
macOS 10.13 supports 4:2:0 footage only, macOS 10.14 and macOS 10.15 support 4:2:2 as well. On Mac systems HEVC decoding is supported through the Apple Video Toolbox API and performance depends on the systems hardware configuration.
For the capabilities of your external GPUs please check the manufacturers specification.ĭecoding of 4:2:2 footage is currently not supported by any GPU accelerator and will be processed by a software decoder which however may benefit from a partial acceleration on some systems.
Avid Media Composer from v8.2 to latest releasesĭecoding HEVC is a challenge for a computer system and will be most satisfying on modern hardware. For best performance, on Windows systems the computer should be equipped with an NVIDIA or AMD GPU or an Intel CPU with Quick Sync Video feature, which support decoding of HEVC footage. An Intel processor with Quick Sync Video starting from Skylake family is suitable (Skylake fully accelerates 8 bit and partially accelerates 10 bit, later generations fully accelerate 8 and 10 bit). It is full offline installer standalone version of Avid Media Composer for 32/64 bit PC. macOS 10.13 High Sierra (only 4:2:0 essence can be decoded, 4:2:2 is not supported on 10.13) Avid Media Composer Free Download Latest Version Setup for Windows.macOS 12 Monterey (Intel, Apple Silicon via Rosetta 2).
