Windows Requirements and Installation
Ensure your PC meets the following requirements prior to installing Calibrated AVC-Intra Create:

Pentium 4 processor with SSE3 support or greater; recommended at least Intel Core 2 Duo with two cores or two
physical processors

32/64-bit Windows 7 or Vista (Business or Ultimate) or Windows 32-bit XP with SP3 (Win XP 64-bit is NOT
supported)

BETA Support for 32/64-bit Windows 8 - our software should work fine on Windows 8; however QuickTime Player
does not officially support Windows 8 yet.

QuickTime Player 7.6.6 or higher

Virtual OS is NOT supported

To view or playback AVC-Intra .MOV files in applications that support QuickTime, you need to have 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.
