Heuris and JVC announced the Pro Indie HD Toolkit, a series of software tools that lets videographers import footage shot with JVC’s JY-HD10U High Definition camcorder into Mac’s Final Cut Pro. The Pro Indie HD Toolkit features powerful software tools like XtractorHDV import utility, MPEG Power Professional-DTVHD, and MPEG-2 encoding software.

Heuris enables independent filmmakers using JVC's JY-HD10U camera to easily transfer footage to the Final Cut Pro editing tool. Filmmakers can download HD video through XtractorHDV with a single click, which imports and converts the HDV to a format recognized by Final Cut Pro. Once the footage has been edited software encodes the footage into MPEG-2 streams. The XtoHD tool transfers the MPEG-2 streams to a D-VHS deck for playback or recorded to D-VHS.
