Grass Valley Upgrade to ProCoder 3
The ProCoder® 3 software combines speed and flexibility into a streamlined video conversion tool. Widely acknowledged as the leading software transcoder, it features extensive input/output options, advanced filtering, batch processing, and an easy-to-use interface.

With it you can encode a single source to multiple targets simultaneously, run multiple conversion jobs back-to-back in batch mode, or use drag-and-drop preset icons to start conversion with a single click.
The ProCoder 3 software has an array of high-performance features, including a design that efficiently leverages the power of your CPU, broad codec support, local and networked use capabilities to fit your workflow, and queue management to ensure your jobs are performed in just the right order.
