Avid upgrades Media Composer for 4K and up

RedShark News by Andy Stout

Fulfilling a promise made at IBC, Avid has released a new version of its Media Composer software which enables users to work natively in 4K.

The company bills this as allowing productions to become truly resolution independent and work in SD, HD, 4K ?and beyond?, the latest Avid DNxHR codec scaling to work with whatever resolution is on the screen and making it ?possible to edit and deliver high-res content within HD-capable infrastructures.? Happily DNxHR is fully backwards compatible with DNxHD and features an adaptable gamut of flavours depending on what?s in front of it and what it?s running on; from DNxHR 444 (4:4:4 colour space, ideal for high-quality colour correction and finishing) down to DNxHR LB (low bandwidth, used for remote workflows and saving storage). Other new capabilities include enhanced colour management, 60fps support, high-efficiency proxy workflows, and background rendering of high-resolution media. read more...
