Custom Encoding for Final Cut Pro and Motion

Apple Pro Compressor integrates with Final Cut Pro and Motion, allowing editors to build precise export presets for individual projects and delivery requirements. Custom settings can control codecs, resolution, frame rate, audio properties, color space, metadata, and output location.

Professional Format and Delivery Support

The software prepares media for many destinations, from Apple devices and online platforms to professional broadcast and distribution workflows. It can generate HDR content, IMF packages, iTunes Store packages, spatial video, 360-degree video, and immersive media packages for supported Apple Vision Pro experiences.

Batch Processing and Workflow Automation

Multiple encoding jobs can be organized into batches and processed together. Watch folders automatically begin transcoding when new files are added, while droplets provide convenient drag-and-drop access to frequently used settings. Destinations can combine encoding instructions with actions such as moving files or running scripts.

Detailed Control Over Media Output

Apple Pro Compressor gives users control over resizing, cropping, retiming, deinterlacing, color conversion, HDR metadata, captions, audio layouts, and visual or audio effects. A preview function helps users review the expected result before starting a complete batch.
