## Compatibility

| Requirement | Details                                        |
| :---------- | :--------------------------------------------- |
| OS          | macOS Sonoma v14.0+, Windows 10+               |
| Hardware    | Apple Silicon Mac, Intel Mac & Windows PC      |
| Software    | Avid Media Composer v2023.8 and later          |
| Additional  | Rosetta required for `ffmpeg` on Apple Silicon |

Jumper currently supports **Avid Media Composer v2023.8** and later, but has been optimised to work great on the latest **Avid Media Composer v2025.12**. If you don't already have `ffmpeg` installed on your system, Jumper currently also requires **Rosetta** on Apple Silicon Macs, as the version of `ffmpeg` Jumper downloads is not currently a Universal Binary. Jumper will install `ffmpeg` automatically if you don't already have it installed.

## Demo Videos

You can watch a 16min video demonstrating Jumper over at [FCP Cafe](https://fcp.cafe/news/20250610-02/).

The below video was created on **8th May 2025**, using **Jumper v2025.05.07 (Build 1847)** by Chris Hocking from [LateNite](https://latenitefilms.com).

This was an early beta version of Jumper for Avid Media Composer, so things may have changed and evolved since this video was posted.
