Neat Video updated to version 5.4.5
This update has continued improving your denoiser and deflicker in various directions. New versions of video editing applications and AMD GPUs are now supported. Neat Video's performance on Apple Silicon computers has become a bit faster. We have also made a number of other small changes throughout the plug-ins to improve your experience.
Neat Video 5.4.3
As soon as M1-native Premiere Pro Beta got public, Neat Video team started working on the new version of the denoiser. Now Neat Video 5.4.3 for Premiere is able to run on Apple Silicon computers without help of Rosetta. That has resulted in impressive 30-40% speed gains.
Strategic Caching in Resolve
In Part 1 of our series on using Neat Video in DaVinci Resolve we covered how best to apply the plug-in for Rec709, Log and Color Managed workflows. Now we’ll take a look at optimizing playback performance during color grading through the strategic use of the caching tools built into Resolve. Check this article to learn new tricks
Neat Video. M1. Final Cut
Finally Neat Video has added native support to M1 computers in the plug-in for Final Cut. It came as an entirely new plug-in as that was the only way to achieve this compatibility. The new plug-in has been called Neat Video Second Revision (or SR) for Final Cut.
Taking the novelty of the SR plug-in into account, we explicitly mark it as a beta version until all significant issues are resolved. If you would rather not take any risk using the SR beta version, you can keep using the Standard Version of Neat Video for Final Cut for the time being. Learn more.

On top of that, the denoiser has been made compatible with macOS Big Sur and new versions of several host applications. Finally, the latest AMD GPUs have joined the squadron of supported graphic cards in accelerating Neat Video renders.
Premiere Pro: keep an eye on the order
There is a number of different ways of applying an effect to a video clip in Premiere Pro. The clip, master clip, nested sequence, adjustment layer… Which effects does Premiere Pro pull into the render pipeline first? Why is that important at all? Certain effects placed in the wrong order can make your render times excessively long, so knowing the processing order of effects can potentially save hours of your time.
