MAC OSX Requirements and Installation
Ensure your Mac meets the following requirements prior to installing Calibrated AVC-Intra Create:
MacIntel Computer Only; recommended at least Intel Core 2 Duo with two cores or two physical processors
Mac Intel with OSX 10.6.8(Snow Leopard) or 10.7.5(Lion) or 10.8.5(Mountain Lion) or 10.9.4 (Mavericks)
BETA Support ONLY for OS X 10.10 ( Yosemite )
QuickTime Player 7.6.6 or higher
To view or playback AVC-Intra .MOV files in applications that support QuickTime, you need to have either FCP7,
FCP X, or Calibrated{Q} AVC-Intra Decode installed on your computer and properly licensed. Avid Media
Composer 5.5.1 or greater can import AVC-Intra .MOV files natively using AMA Linking. (earlier versions of Avid
MC have not been tested)
Calibrated AVC-Intra Create supports encoding from 10-bit YUV422 and 16-bit RGB(A) 444(4)
colorspaces, thus preserving the full bit depth of AVC-Intra, HOWEVER it is up to the application using
Calibrated AVC-Intra Create to send those colorspaces to the codec. If an application does not support
those higher bit-depths then encoding will be done using 8-bit YUV422 or 8-bit RGB(A) 444(4). Please see
the “Enable Colorspace Watermark” in the Options Chapter to learn how to see what colorspace an application is
sending to Calibrated AVC-Intra Create, and also see the Windows Applications Chapter or Mac OSX
Applications Chapter to learn more about how to configure Calibrated AVC-Intra Create for popular applications.
