FXbench is a programmable Filter-Extension for Video editing applications.

As the first of its kind, FXbench adds powerful and flexible programming capabilities by providing a development environment and a simplified and secure programming language via the NLE-applications plugin interface.

FXbench comes along together with 204 predefined filter definitions that can be used out of the box, without any further knowledge of the programming language. Due to the nature of FXbench, those sample filters source code is accessible to everyone who is interessted to learn more about FXbench programming.

There are plugins for different host applications available that all share the same compiler engine and script language. Therefore filters that where developed for a certain Ulead product will instantly work without any adaption with Adobe products and vice versa.

Because of the integrated internet filetransfer (FTP), sharing and downloading filter definitions directly over the internet is now almost as fast and easy as working locally.

Please note that the project is currently in prerelease phase, but available to beta testers.
While the software is in a stable state and contains all functionality for a first release, the documentation is still under revision.

The current version supports Ulead VideoStudio and MediaStudio Pro, Adobes Premiere, Premiere Pro and (most likely) Premiere Elements.
