It was available forMicrosoft Windows PCs andApple Macintosh computers.Xpress Pro included many of the high-end editing features offered by other
Avid editing systems, and was closely based on Avid'sMedia Composer systems. In conjunction with the Avid Mojo hardware, it provided real-time uncompressed video editing at a professional level. Xpress Pro was capable of sharing media files with Avid's advancedMedia Composer editing systems making it a capable logging or off line editing system for larger projects.While Xpress Pro was originally aimed at DV and uncompressed standard definition editors, the upgrade to Xpress Pro HD with version 5.0 of the software added support for high-definition editing with the 8-bit version of Avid's
DNxHD codec or Panasonic's DVCPRO HD codec, and version 5.2 added support forHDV editing. Unlike some other editing packages, Xpress Pro HD edits HDV natively by decompressing the MPEG-2 stream on the fly, rather than transcoding into an intraframe codec.Xpress Pro was discontinued on
March 17 ,2008 , and will no longer be for sale afterJune 30 ,2008 .
