Media 100 Suite Version 1.5 New Feature Highlights

• Export Presets: A new Preference Pane lets Media 100 editors create and save multiple presets for exporting Programs.

• Batch Export Queue: Programs can be added to the Batch Export Queue window where Export Presets can be applied. Any combination of Programs can be exported using any number of Export Presets.

• AVCHD Import using ClipWrap: Choosing “Import AVCHD…” from the File menu launches ClipWrap, an optional third-party application. Users can then choose AVCHD files which are rewrapped to be QuickTime-friendly and imported into Media 100 Suite.
