Hello ProRes RAW community,

as of today, you can start using ProRes RAW in Premiere Pro 14.2 (public release).

Thanks to the large group of people from this thread that helped us during the last couple of weeks in putting finishing touches on the implementation through our beta program.

More info on 14.2 is available from:

Cheers,
Patrick

Hi everyone,

as of last night, ProRes RAW is available via the Public Beta program. More info on how it works is available from

https://theblog.adobe.com/introducing-public-beta/

If you wanna learn more about which Adobe products are supported, system requirements and then some, please head over to

https://community.adobe.com/t5/premiere-pro-beta/discuss-prores-raw-support/td-p/11013854?page=1

Note: we’re still ramping up Public Beta, if you don’t see it yet in your region / using your Adobe ID, please either contact me directly (https://www.linkedin.com/in/patrick-j-palmer-b9230a1/) or give this a little more time to show up in your Creative Cloud Desktop Application.

Cheers,

Hello everyone,

as mentioned by several people in the thread, a lot is going on in the world right now. There is a change to our plans, here’s the current status:

If you’re in the middle of a project using ProRes RAW and access to a beta build sounds desirable, please reply to this email (those who are not receiving an email but read this online: just find me on LinkedIn instead: https://www.linkedin.com/in/patrick-j-palmer-b9230a1/ ).

We currently have a private beta build available. If you know the drill using such a build under NDA, don’t hesitate to contact me. If you’re not sure but the need is obvious, contact me anyways and I’ll give you a shout to discuss options with you.

If you’re mostly curious, I suggest to wait a couple more weeks:

We’re currently working on a system that enables public beta builds for a wider audience without going through the process of signing an NDA. This is being ramped up as we speak, more information can be found here:

Take care,
Patrick

Hello everyone,

my sincere apologies for not updating the status of this request any sooner.

We’ve been working on widening the range of supported systems for the last couple of weeks – and to ensure we get performance right. I’ll have roll-out information for you within the next 4 weeks.

Cheers,
Patrick

Here’s an update on where we’re at with including support for ProRes RAW: we’re getting closer to the finish line.

You can expect to see it supported with one of the upcoming releases of Premiere Pro. Expect more details on this towards the end of Q4.

Cheers,
Patrick

We’re always trying to support a wide range of formats, and this particular format I’ve marked as “under consideration” earlier this year as we hear you loud and clear on the desire to have it supported in our products.

That said, it isn’t in the release available to you today, and I can’t give you an ETA at this stage. Our priority is to make every new format a great fit in terms of workflow, integration and performance, and sometimes that means it isn’t going to happen at an accelerated pace.

We’re looking into adding support for ProRes RAW as we speak.

This wait smells a lot like they are having trouble implementing prores RAW into Premiere...I'm not going to hold my breath.

Guess It’s time to leave for fcpx after all... tired of waiting in the dark. It’s really disrespectful when you’re business is build around « subscription.
I’ll just keep my cheaper subscription for Lightroom for now. Until I find the time to move to another software.

Very timely. I was about to cancel Creative Cloud. The only reason I took it up was specifically for Prores RAW - Nikon Z6, Atomos Ninja V.

Interestingly, the Ninja V outputs the RAW files via HDMI out to my 4k monitor in play mode.

Don't have any Mac equipement. Edius 9 comes up with "unsuppoerted codec"? The trial is riddled with restrictions. Avid Media Composer converts the RAW file to DNxHR in a lovely solid green. Fetching. Assimilate Scratch 9 sees the RAW files. Even plays the thumbnail thingie... Nice solid blue. Various installs, Quicktime, etc...

So it's Premier (4 weeks) or I'll just stick with Nlog on Resolve, which is very nice...

I don't think it entirely Adobe fault. Atomos choose to work with apple to develop prores raw knowing the fact how apple is with there properties. Apple don't make tradition easy for anyone. Blackmagic provided SDK for their codec day one so other could implement it. They even developed a plug-in for the codec to make the life easier on their customer. But atomos is not doing anything beside promoting final cut

Your silence on this speaks volumes Adobe. How pathetic to keep your long-time users in the dark about this for months now. SHAME ON YOU!

Please give us another update on when you expect ProRes RAW support in Premiere Pro. Clearly didn't get released Q4 and now getting concerned. We've been waiting a long time for this. Very eager to have a concrete release date. September was the announcement that Adobe had reached agreement with Apple over the codec. So many filmmakers have been waiting for this moment.

this is so ridiculous. My subscription expires in April. it is shameful that we who pay lots of money each month should have to sit and wait for this update. I don't think I will keep my subscription after it expires

Patrick, are we now talking Q4 2020 or was your statement for 2019 and it's been bumped to Q1 2020?

It would be nice if we could get the update that we were expecting in Q4, unless of course you meant Q4 of 2020.

Craziest part is I wouldn't be canceling my subscription if they thought **** about their subscribers to at least keep us updated. I'm building a studio and can't afford to slow up my entire workflow because Adobe wants to act like OPEC. This is a complete disregard for their subscribers.

It's really frustrating. I have now installed the test version of Edius. If this works for me I will definitly quit my Premiere account. So sad.
