PluralEyes

## Supported Media Formats

PluralEyes can synchronize a mixture of video and audio formats in a project. Footage from a wide variety of cameras and audio recording devices is supported. It is often helpful, but not required, for devices to have accurate time-of-day settings. Timecode recording is not necessary. If you attempt to add media file types that are incompatible, you will get a warning pop up at the top of the PluralEyes window:\
![No Usable Media Found warning](https://help.maxon.net/rg/en-us/Content/Resources/Images/No-Usable-Media-Found-warning_pluraleyes.png)\
Your footage can be in any of the following formats. For the latest compatibility specs, go to our [Compatibility page](http://www.redgiant.com/products/all/pluraleyes/compatibility/#tabs) .
