![]() ![]() Plus, other “deeper features,” which Larry includes in his overall impressions of a focused, flexible, capable program. Read more over at, including how Edit Share handles Metadata, Blackmagic Raw support, and a feature called “clip trimming,” which enables Edit Share to encode only portion of a clip. If there’s a naming conflict, the system will notify you, as well. ![]() ![]() However, like a young puppy, it just hangs around forever. NOTE: It would be helpful if there was a way to dismiss this notification once it appears. When transcoding is complete, the system notifies you. The conversion process is indicated by these three bars: When you are ready to convert, click Convert All, or Convert Flagged if you are just converting favorites. This allows you to standardize names as well as formats. In all cases, you are transcoding clips into the single, selected preset.Īs you would expect, you can select a destination folder, including one stored on a server which I’ve done here, and apply a file naming template to all the clips. NOTE: You can either batch convert all the clips you imported to this one preset, or flag some clips as favorites and just transcode those. The panel on the right contains settings for how you want to convert (transcode) your media.Īt the top are a collection of presets that allow you to quickly apply settings to all selected clips. (You could also type Cmd-O, but that’s pretty boring.) Um, you’ll never guess where to drag a clip, or group of clips, that you want to transcode. The program is stored in the Applications folder of your Mac. Installation is straight-forward using a Mac standard installer that you’ve used dozens of time. Aside from the time to download, installation takes less than five minutes. The software is purchased directly from divergent media’s website. The software has a very nicely written 35-page manual which covers all operations in an accessible manner. Key new features in Edit Ready 2.5 are support for transcoding only a portion of a clip (which saves storage space) and support for the new Blackmagic RAW video codec. It also supports watermarking, timecode burn-in, image scaling, LUT assignments and frame rate adjustments to support extreme slow motion. NOTE: With Apple discontinuing legacy 32-bit codecs in the next version of the macOS operating system, Edit Ready provides a fast, yet comprehensive way to convert older media and preserve your assets.Įdit Ready is published by divergent media, an independent software company focused on providing flexible tools for monitoring, quality assurance, and acquisition for the video production industry.Įdit Ready supports single or batch transcoding of media files into common formats for editing in Avid, Adobe or Apple software. While our editing software can handle all these options, it is often far better to standardize your media into a single format prior to editing. Edit Ready is a utility designed exactly for this purpose. AMA codec support is the manufacturer's responsiblity and the A7S has been out for over a year.In today’s world of digital media, dealing with multiple codecs, frame sizes, even frame rates is a sad fact of life. Storm Sony with pitchforks? This is rediculous. Again, no TC so make sure you designate a unique reel number for each "card" especially if the camera is set to reset the file names back to C0001 when changing cards.Ħ. Resolve can read the audio and turn the files into whatever. FCPX can read the audio and transcode to ProRes, but no TC.ĥ. Adobe Media Encoder can read audio and TC but because Prelude can't read TC batch processing is going to be tough.Ĥ. Can load LUTs, but you need to get them from somewhere first. Earlier in the summer, Divergent Media, a software company whose tools need no introduction in the video production world, released EditReady, a Mac transcoding app with a tremendous claim, that it was supposedly the world's fastest transcoder for Quicktime conversion. Can convert to UHD or 4K DNxHR and ProRes (select Custom output settings) also DNxHD and ProRes for HD. Since you can apply LUTs within Media Composer, I wouldn't suggest burning LUTs into the transcodes especially because you're likely to use the transcoded material when coloring since the original media probably won't convey TC and/or Audio depending on where it ends up.Ģ. (Boo!) It has built in LUTS and can convert to XAVC-Intra and XAVC-Long in UHD or 4K but ProRes and DNx are limited to HD. In my experience, the free trial lasted one launch. If you don't it's $199 after the free trial expires. Resolve 12 can read the audio (yay!), but no version of Resolve can read the time code (boo!).ġ. ![]()
