After another night of googling and experimenting I managed to figure out what the problem was. So finally AViD DNxHD codec for QT works like a charm on my machine. Turns out the problem was with Avid's codecs installers (tried LE 2.3.7, 2.3.8, 2.3.9, as well as PE 2.3.7). They install the actual codec files (extension.qtx) to the wrong. The Miraizon DNxHD and ProRes codec components offer identical functionality for both Mac and Windows users, as well as identical compression and decompression capability to all QuickTime-compatible applications. Editors can now use the best codec for the job while maintaining their preferred editing system and computer platform.

What's a DNxHR/DNxHD File?
Avid DNxHR/DNxHD (Digital Nonlinear eXtensible High Resolution/Definition) intermediate codec is a revolutionary encoding technology that enables media professionals to work with HD and high-res media at significantly reduced file sizes. DNxHR is designed to meet the needs of multiple compositing with less storage space and bandwidth requirements. It allows collaborative HD and UHD post-production and delivery.
Avid DNxHD encoding technology is dedicated to non-linear editing and multi-generation composites in a collaborative environment for post-processing and news broadcast processing. DNxHD supports resolutions up to 1080p. DNxHD's quality levels are recognized by the number after DNxHD which stands for data rate.
Avid DNxHD's sister codec, DNxHR, supports resolutions beyond FullHD, including 4K and 8K UHD. They actually use the same encoding technology. Their main competitors are Apple ProRes and GoPro CineForm. DNxHR uses a different name system with DNxHD (see image below).
Below are a few principles for choose DNxHR quality levels.
HQX and 444: 10 bit
- UHDTV's standard does not have 8bit, only 10bit. So if you want to follow the standard completely, you need to use 10bit.
- The original material is 10bit, and you intend to retain its quantization accuracy.
- Need to make a lot of compositing, special effects, keying, color correction, etc.
- The image contains a lot of transitions and gradients - using 8 bit will result in low quality image.
HQ, SQ and LB Comparison
- All are 8bit, almost no quality difference is observed in most monitoring environments.
- What quality to use depends entirely on the subjective experience and the balance of hard disk/bandwidth considerations.
Avid DNxHR/DNxHD technology supports the Material Exchange Format (MXF) format, an open media file conversion format that enables direct media data exchange between Avid systems and third-party MXF-compatible products.
VLC Media Player is highly recommended to play DNxHR/DNxHD encoded videos. Either Windows and Mac version is available. Another DNx player is PotPlayer. To edit DNx video in MXF or MOV, Movavi Video Editor is humbly recommended.

FAQs on DNxHR Playback in Windows and Mac
Question: What are the differences between DNxHD and DNxHR?
Avid Codecs Le
Answer: Avid DNxHR is the successor of DNxHD which supports resolution up to 1080p. It is a frequently used intermediate codec which supports up to 8K resolutions. These two codecs share the same compression technology, and constitute a complete HD and UHD codec product line.
Question: How do you convert DNxHR to MOV?
Answer: DNxHR/DNxHD are video codec while MOV is a file container format that supports DNx codecs. If you want to convert a DNx encoded MOV to H.264 MOV, Handbrake and Movavi Video Converter is considered as the best free or commercial DNxHR video converter.
Movavi Video Editor Opens DNxHR Files and More
Not only can DNxHR Video Editor opens DNxHR files but also other video formats like MOV, MP4, MPG, M4V, DNxHR, FLV, etc. Movavi Video Editor is an all-in-one video editing application for Mac and Windows.

(Redirected from DNxHD codec)
Avid DNxHD ('Digital Nonlinear Extensible High Definition') is a lossyhigh-definition videopost-productioncodec developed by Avid for multi-generation compositing with reduced storage and bandwidth requirements. It is an implementation of SMPTE VC-3 standard.[1]
Overview[edit]
DNxHD is a video codec intended to be usable as both an intermediate format suitable for use while editing and as a presentation format. DNxHD data is typically stored in an MXF container, although it can also be stored in a QuickTime container.
On February 13, 2008, Avid reported that DNxHD was approved as compliant with the SMPTE VC-3 standard.[2]
DNxHD is intended to be an open standard, but as of March 2008, has remained effectively a proprietary Avid format. The source code for the Avid DNxHD codec is freely available from Avid for internal evaluation and review, although commercial use requires Avid licensing approval. It has been commercially licensed to a number of companies including Ikegami, FilmLight, Harris Corporation, JVC, Seachange, EVS Broadcast Equipment.[3]
On September 14, 2014, at the Avid Connect event in Amsterdam, Netherlands, Avid announced the DNxHR codec to support resolutions greater than 1080p, such as 2K and 4K.[4]
On December 22, 2014, Avid Technology released an update for Media Composer that added support for 4K resolution, the Rec. 2020 color space, and a bit rate of up to 3,730 Mbit/s with the DNxHR codec.[5][6]
Implementations[edit]
Avid Codecs
DNxHD was first supported in Avid DS Nitris (Sept 2004), then Avid Media Composer Adrenaline with the DNxcel option (Dec 2004) and finally by Avid Symphony Nitris (Dec 2005). Xpress Pro is limited to using DNxHD 8-bit compression, which is either imported from file or captured using a Media Composer with Adrenaline hardware. Media Composer 2.5 also allows editing of fully uncompressed HD material that was either imported or captured on a Symphony Nitris or DS Nitris system. Ikegami's Editcam camera system is unique in its support for DNxHD, and records directly to DNxHD encoded video. Such material is immediately accessible by editing platforms that directly support the DNxHD codec. The Arri Alexasupports DNxHD since November 2011. Blackmagic Design HyperDeck Shuttle 2 and HyperDeck Studio support DNxHD as of 2012.[7]AJA Video Systems has supported the DNxHD codec in its Ki Pro Mini and Ki Pro Rack recorders and players since 2012.
A standalone QuickTime codec for both Windows XP and Mac OS X is available to create and play QuickTime files containing DNxHD material.
Since September 2007, the open sourceFFmpeg project is providing 8-bit VC-3/DNxHD encoding and decoding features thanks to BBC Research who sponsored the project and Baptiste Coudurier who implemented it. In July 2011, FFmpeg added 10-bit encoding support.[8] DNxHD support is included in stable version 0.5 of FFmpeg, released on March 10, 2009.[9][10] This allows Linuxnon-linear video editorsCinelerra and Kdenlive to use DNxHD.
At the April 2012 NAB show, Brevity introduced a customized algorithm for the accelerated transport and encoding of DNxHD files.[11]
Technical details[edit]
DNxHD is very similar to JPEG. Every frame is independent and consists of VLC-coded DCT coefficients.
The header consists of many parts and may include quantization tables and 2048 bits of user data. Each frame also has two GUIDs and timestamp. The frame header is packed into big-endian dwords. Actual frame data consists of packed macroblocks using a technique almost identical to JPEG: DC prediction and variable-length codes with run length encoding for other 63 coefficients.DC coefficient is not quantized.
The codec supports alpha channel information.

VC-3[edit]
The DNxHD codec was submitted to the SMPTE organization as the framework for the VC-3 family of standards. It was approved as SMPTE VC-3 after a two-year testing and validation process in 2008 and 2009:[1][2][12][13]
- SMPTE 2019-1-2008 VC-3 Picture Compression and Data Stream Format
- SMPTE 2019-3-2008 VC-3 Type Data Stream Mapping Over SDTI
- SMPTE 2019-4-2009 Mapping VC-3 Coding Units into the MXF Generic Container
- RP (Recommended Practices) 2019-2-2009 VC-3 Decoder and Bitstream Conformance
