MXF Lite

MXF Lite has not received meaningful updates in several years — the latest visible version is 2.0.6 — and there is no evidence of a native Apple Silicon build. The search results point only to free download aggregator sites rather than an official vendor page, which suggests the original developer may no longer be actively maintaining the project. Because Intel-only applications will stop launching entirely when Apple removes Rosetta 2 in macOS 28 (September 2028), MXF Lite will become unusable at that point unless a native build appears. If you rely on this app for regular MXF conversion work, consider switching to a more actively maintained alternative such as Handbrake (free, open-source, runs natively on Apple Silicon), Compressor (part of Final Cut Pro if you are already in that ecosystem), or a professional-grade tool like FFmpeg or MediaInfo, all of which support MXF input and run natively on M-series Macs. Alternatively, cloud-based conversion services like CloudConvert or Media.io may serve as stopgap solutions, though they do not offer the privacy of a local desktop application.
