Midv370 | Better

Historically, "better" compression meant "harder to play." The midv370 shatters this expectation. Thanks to Tile-based parallel decoding (borrowed from AV1 but optimized for mid-range hardware), the midv370 decodes 22% faster than the midv369 on ARM-based chips (M1/M2, Snapdragon) and 15% faster on x86 (Intel/AMD).

This means less battery drain during playback and zero dropped frames when scrubbing through a 4K timeline on a laptop that is three years old. The midv370 is not just better for storage; it is better for actual human usability. midv370 better

How does the midv370 stack up against non-linear competitors? Historically, "better" compression meant "harder to play

While AV1 is a fantastic codec, its encoding time is prohibitive for live streaming or quick turnarounds. The midv370 offers 90% of the compression efficiency of AV1 at roughly 40% of the encoding time. For the professional who needs to deliver a 4K file by 5 PM, the midv370 is the better tool.

Recording at high bitrates fills drives instantly. The midv370’s Dynamic HDR metadata retention means your game footage doesn't look washed out on HDR monitors. Because it reduces the file size by 40%, you can record twice as long gameplay sessions before hitting the storage limit.

Generating proxies is a chore. The midv370 supports Smart Rendering—where only the frames that actually change are re-encoded. If you place a title over a static background, the midv370 writes the title once and references the background, rather than re-rendering the whole frame 24 times per second. Editors report a 50% reduction in export times for timeline-heavy projects.
