Switch 1.6 – Switch Plus!

New License Level

As Switch continues to grow, so do the needs of our audience.  As a result, we are excited to announce a new license level for Switch: Switch Plus!

Priced at $49, Switch Plus fits in between the free Switch Player and the $295 Switch Pro, including all the features of Switch Player, and adding playback support for HEVC, MPEG-2 (on Windows) and AC3 audio; export support for MPEG-4, QuickTime, MPEG-2 TS/PS, Apple ProRes, H.264, as well as support for caption playback, and professional audio meters.

For a full comparison of all three versions, visit our website.
