Avid releases Media Composer 2022.7

Now with keyboard shortcuts for Premiere Pro and Resolve. What else awaits users: fixed bugs, new functions – and what’s on top?

In nuce: Avid Media Composer has recently been updated to version 2022.7. One special feature that our colleague Scott Simmons from Provideo Coalition has noticed is that Media Composer now also offers keyboard mappings for competitor programmes Premiere Pro and Resolve. According to Scott, keyboard mappings installed by developers are nothing special, at least for competitor products in the video editing sector. However, this is a novelty for Media Composer. Until now, Avid has refrained from offering its users keyboard layouts from competitors.

What can you expect in the article? In the article entitled “Avid Media Composer updated to 2022.7, now with competing keyboard layouts”, Scott Simon puts the different keyboard layouts to the test – and compares them with each other. Beyond the keyboard clatter, Avid Media Composer 2022.7 offers numerous bug fixes and other new features. See also the points below:

  • New match frame results: for group and multi-group subclips
  • Use multiple monitors at the same time: user-defined workspaces are offered for this in the settings
  • Select filler: via the segment tools. These have been added to the timeline menu
  • For nested clips: clip notes are displayed in the timeline
  • New enablers: with improved design
