I have been using Edius for over 10 years. There is a learning curve but it has always run on any machine I had, from my laptop to my desktop and has codec for just about every format of video there is. I can convert, filter and manage all of you video projects. Try the demo and see.

Edius is the most cost effective and productive editing software there is. Easy to use, it follows industry norms, I have converted several new hires who are familiar with other platforms, with no issues. The new Titler 5 from NewBlueFx makes it even better. Enjoy

I was an Edius user way back, when it was a hardware based video editing system. I used Edius for several documentary projects, and liked it a lot. However, do to a change in priorities, I stopped using it at version 4. I was recently hired to do a new video project, and was very excited to discover the jump upgrade that enabled me to jump to the latest version. Thanks, Grass Valley.

When an editor has to wait for technology, creativity suffers. That doesn't happen with EDIUS Pro 9. EDIUS Pro 9 means more formats and more resolutions in real time for the ability to Edit Anything, Fast. EDIUS Pro 9 is the perfect finishing tool for professional productions, including documentary and 4K and HDR theatrical productions.
With more creative options and real-time, no-render editing of all popular SD, HD and even 4K and HDR formats, EDIUS Pro 9 is THE most versatile and fastest nonlinear editing software available. EDIUS Pro 9 from Grass Valley, a Belden Brand, gives you real-time editing of multiple formats and frame rates all on the same timeline. That means you can edit faster... and make the time to be more creative.
More Formats, Better Workflows
EDIUS Pro 9 includes native support for all commonly used file formats, including Sony XDCAM, Panasonic P2, Canon XF and EOS movie and RED formats. For post-production work you can use Grass Valley's high-performance intermediate 10-bit codec, HQX and there is an option available to add the Avid DNxHD codec (included as standard in the Workgroup version). Where EDIUS Pro 9 really shines, however, is with its fast and comprehensive implementation of newer file formats, for example Sony XAVC (Intra/ Long GOP)/XAVC S, Panasonic AVC-Ultra, Canon XF-AVC and various Log/RAW files. With EDIUS Pro 9, you'll always be able to edit, whatever format comes your way.
You Buy It, You Keep It - No Subscription Fees
Unlike other NLE software providers, Grass Valley believes that you should own what you pay for. With EDIUS Pro 9, there are no ongoing subscription fees. When you purchase EDIUS Pro 9, you get a permanent license with free updates throughout the life of EDIUS Pro 9.x. Plus, you can install EDIUS Pro 9 on two machines, so you can have it with you on your laptop (using proxy mode on a less powerful notebook, if needed), as well on a more powerful desktop machine. That way, you can take your edit suite on location with you.
64-bit & 4K HDR
Designed as a native 64-bit application for Windows 7, Windows 8.1 and Windows 10, EDIUS Pro 9 takes full advantage of up to 512 GB system memory (for Windows 8.1/10 Enterprise and Pro) or up to 192 GB (for Windows 7 Ultimate, Enterprise and Professional) for super-intensive media operations, especially layering, 3D, multicam and multitrack 4K editing. EDIUS Pro 9 is optimized for Intel's Quick Sync Video, a feature of all current Core processors (Core i7, Core i5 and Core i3) and especially useful for video editing because it significantly accelerates MPEG-2 and H.264 encoding. EDIUS Pro 9 has been further enhanced to use Intel Quick Sync Video for H.264 decoding to give you super-smooth H.264 playback, including 4K.

A list of third-party titling software and effects plug-ins is available on our website.
Unrivaled Mixed-Format Editing
Featuring unrivaled real-time video transcoding technology, EDIUS Pro 9 converts between HD/SD and HDR/SDR resolutions, aspect ratios and frame rates - all in real time. You can edit in HD and place 4:3 SD video on the timeline, mix NTSC and PAL sources, add 4K or combine them all into projects in other resolutions and frame rates without wasting a single moment on conversion or rendering. EDIUS Pro 9 supports resolutions from 24x24 to 4Kx2K, all on the same timeline, even in nested sequences, all in real time.
Multiplatform Delivery
Finishing in a variety of formats is easy with EDIUS Pro 9. Output resolutions can be customized and then saved with a variety of file wrappers for distribution to professional and consumer systems.
Mync
New for EDIUS Pro 9, Mync is a powerful new tool which allows you to manage all your video, audio and still image assets in preparation for editing in EDIUS. Mync is smart - when you a connect a removable drive or card reader to your system, it will automatically detect supported formats and display them in the clip bin window.
NewBlue's Titler Pro 5
