BAVE analyzes each scene in your film and applies the perfect compression settings automatically. Export theatrical masters, streaming files, or festival submissions. Everything runs locally on your CPU.
Every feature solves a real-world problem editors and directors face when preparing films for distribution.
BAVE examines every scene and applies custom compression tuned for that specific footage. Dark scenes get different treatment than bright scenes. Fast action differs from slow dialogue.
Advanced algorithms detect both hard cuts and gradual transitions with frame-perfect accuracy. No more missed fades or duplicated segments.
Theatrical: Maximum quality for cinema and awards. Streaming: Optimized for online platforms. Festival: Exact file size for submission requirements.
Detects stereo and surround formats automatically. Loudness is normalized to broadcast standards with no manual adjustment needed.
Converts HDR to SDR, removes black bars, and scales to any resolution in a single pass. Works with any input format.
If your system restarts mid-encode, BAVE resumes exactly where it left off. Hours of progress are never lost.
Independent testing shows BAVE delivers higher quality at the same bitrate compared to traditional encoders.
