Version 2026 of the Just In Mac Pro capture solution for macOS is macOS Sequoia (15.7.x) and macOS Tahoe (26.x and higher) certified and fully qualified to run natively on the Apple silicon chipset architecture (M1-M5).
The combination of this highly efficient and powerful system architecture from Apple and our professional capture solution offers many advantages and benefits to both our customers and our future innovations.
Important: The Just In Mac Pro 2026 capture solution is optimized exclusively for Apple silicon hardware (M1-M5) to provide you with the best performance and experience!
By fully transitioning to the Apple silicon platform, we ensure optimal performance, stability, and compatibility with the latest advancements.
If you are planning to deploy Just In Mac Pro on qualified INTEL-based Macs (MacPro7,1 or Macmini8,1) please consider using version 6.5 or version 2025.1!
Nevertheless, we will, of course, continue to support our customers who still have certified Intel-based Macs running qualified versions of Just In Mac Pro.
Just In Mac Pro 2026.0 introduces or enhances some highly requested capabilities from our valued customers:
What’s New in Version 2026.0
Just In Mac Pro 2026.0 introduces adaptive signal handling, redesigned presets, stronger IP performance, deeper monitoring, and expanded broadcast-format compatibility for professional recording on Apple silicon Macs.
Smarter Capture with Auto Format Detection
Channels can automatically detect incoming SDI or IP signal formats and configure themselves to match, reducing the need for fixed manual assignments.
Together with the redesigned capture-preset architecture, this enables faster setup, fewer operator errors, and greater flexibility across changing formats and frame rates. A clear Wrong Format warning and Inspector diagnostics improve operational safety when a configured input does not match.
NDI 6.3 and Improved Reliability
NDI support is updated to version 6.3, improving performance and stability for IP-based capture environments.
The release also includes reliability refinements across format changes, diagnostics, memory handling, and overall channel stability.
Professional Metadata and Timecode Monitoring
New live overlays provide visibility into CEA-608/708 closed captions, OP-47 subtitles, and SCTE-104 markers during capture.
Enhanced LTC and timecode validation, including clearer invalid or frozen status indicators, helps operators identify metadata and timing issues before they affect recordings.
Enhanced ARD/ZDF MXF Profiles
Improved support for ARD/ZDF HDF01a/b and XDF-01 MXF profiles enables more direct file exchange for European broadcast environments.
Native profile support reduces additional conversion work and improves compatibility with editing platforms such as Adobe Premiere Pro.
More Intelligent Day-to-Day Operation
The 2026 generation streamlines licensing workflows, improves visibility into support and maintenance status, and refines multiviewer operation.
Professional audio, IP connectivity, monitoring, diagnostics, and workflow automation improvements combine to make demanding multi-channel capture environments easier to configure and supervise.
Designed for Apple Silicon Capture Systems
Just In Mac Pro 2026 is designed as a versatile client-server capture platform for current Apple silicon Macs.
It supports professional workflows across news, sports, live events, studio production, compliance recording, and multi-channel ingest, with an emphasis on adaptable formats and confident operation.
