Access Avid content in Adobe

Edit Bridge supports connection to multiple Avid Interplay and MediaCentral systems, giving users the freedom to build flexible searches across the Avid databases. View thumbnails and find and select media for editing, before transferring or rewrapping these on-the-fly and streaming directly to Adobe Premiere Pro or After Effects for immediate editing.

Flexible custom searches

Searched fields are configurable with custom names, plus multiple search criteria can be linked together. In addition, searches can be specified over a variety of time periods, based on the modification date of the assets. Results are displayed with basic metadata and thumbnails. From there, the user can access these assets and bring them directly in to their creative tool of choice.

Advanced user management

Edit Bridge requires the user to log in using an Interplay account, so that the information that’s displayed, accessible and uploadable is controlled, based upon that user’s permissions. Content in the supported codecs can be loaded into Premiere Pro or After Effects for immediate ‘in-place’ editing from the Avid storage. Other content will be copied and re-wrapped before importing.
