Re: [Avid-L2] Media Composer v7.0.4 and Mac OS 10.9.4

 

Then that begs the question, what happens when they pull QT 7 completely? And how does QTX convert if they remove the older engine? What is Apple's main goal when closing QTX from 3rd party codecs?

AFAIK there is no mechanism for Avid or anyone else to "migrate" their codec to AVFoundation.  

At this time it does appear that only Apple can add codecs fro QT X natively: H.264, ProRes and done. Everything else will be converted to play back in QT X.

Hi Philip

Does this mean that only Apple can dictate "native" codecs for QT X - as in no "converting" process?
Or is this the case that Avid needs to migrate their codec to AVFoundation?

Unfortunately there is no codec extensibility in AVFoundation, like there was in QuickTime.
