Perhaps as a response to this competition, the developers of

With its recent release of Media Composer 8.3, you can now edit and output native 4K footage. Prior to this release, working in 4K was only possible by importing your footage through Avid AMA, and working with lower-resolution versions of your footage. However, Avid has introduced its DNxHR codec to support 4K workflows. DNxHR comes in six flavors, from DNxHR LB (low bandwidth) all the way up to DNxHR 444 (Cinema Quality), allowing you choices in compression and
