Avid DNxHR, which stands for 'Digital Nonlinear Extensible High Resolution', is a lossyUHDTVpost-productioncodec engineered for multi-generation compositing with reduced storage and bandwidth requirements. The codec was specifically developed for resolutions considered above FHD/1080p, including 2K, 4K and 8K resolution. DNxHD will continue to be used for HD resolutions.[1]

On September 12, 2014, Avid Technology, Inc. announced the DNxHR codec as part of a broader 'Avid Resolution Independence' announcement at their Fall 2014 Avid Connect event, which was held during the IBC 2014 conference in Amsterdam, Netherlands.[1]
On December 22, 2014, Avid released Media Composer 8.3 which included support for 4K project formats and the DNxHR codec. Further details for the DNxHR codec were outlined in the 'Avid High-Resolution Workflows Guide - December 2014'.[2]
Uses[edit]
It is used in both hardware and software. For example, some camera monitors with recording capability can record to this format for using in post production editing software.

Compressor tightly integrates with Final Cut Pro to add custom output settings, distributed encoding, and extensive delivery features. With support for HDR, HEVC, 360° video, MXF output, and improved performance and efficiency on Mac computers with Apple silicon, it’s the most powerful, flexible way to export your Final Cut Pro projects.
Seamless integration with Final Cut Pro.
A simple interface and intuitive controls make Compressor the perfect companion for custom encoding with Final Cut Pro.
A sleek interface matches Final Cut Pro and makes it simple to navigate compression projects. Browse encoding settings in the left sidebar, and open the inspector to quickly configure advanced audio and video properties. Your batch appears in the center, directly below a large viewer that lets you view and navigate your file.
A powerful new Metal engine takes advantage of the CPUs, GPUs, and memory in your Mac for high-performance encoding of high-resolution video. Compressor also leverages available hardware encoders for H.264 and HEVC exports, spreads work across multiple CPU cores, and uses the high-speed GPU on the graphics card to speed up demanding image processing tasks.
Whether you customize an existing Compressor setting in Final Cut Pro or create an entirely new one, you can share the results with other Final Cut Pro editors — even if they don’t have Compressor installed on their systems. You can also create Destinations, which combine an encode setting with a post-encode action to automate tasks like emailing, copying, and moving files, posting to social media platforms, or executing a custom script.
Optimized for Mac Pro
Encode video in stunning 8K resolution with Compressor on the most powerful Mac Pro ever. Compressor distributes multiple encoding jobs across up to 28 GPU cores, reducing the need for additional workstations. And with access to all that GPU power you can complete graphics-related processes like dynamic image filers faster than ever.
Support for industry standards.
With support for a wide range of popular device outputs as well as professional video and audio formats, Compressor expands on the encoding options built into Final Cut Pro. Mac skin pack for windows 7.
HDR
You can view High Dynamic Range footage on any recent Mac that displays an extended range of brightness, and see the video right in the viewer before starting a batch export. Or step up to the new Pro Display XDR and view your video in stunning HDR, the way it was meant to be seen.
HEVC
Export video in the High Efficiency Video Coding (HEVC) format to create high‑quality files that are up to 40 percent smaller than those encoded as H.264. Adjust image quality parameters to optimize your output, then save your HEVC export setting and access it directly in Final Cut Pro.
Closed Captions
Easily view, adjust, and export closed captions, with the ability to import caption files — even in multiple languages — into a single batch or iTunes Store package. Compressor supports CEA-608, iTT, and SRT formats. You can also choose to embed caption metadata in the exported video or deliver a separate sidecar file.
