32-Bit QuickTime Support Ending - Premiere v12.0.0

Hello,

My team is now seeing this warning throughout our projects.  "32-bit QuickTime Support Ending"  -  essentially saying please transcode any media under this legacy format for the future.

What exactly falls under legacy 32-bit quicktime?  Is it certain codecs?  Or all QT MOV files?  If the later, that is kind of huge.

Thank you,

Nick

Looking through the webs, I came across this (Apple confirms QuickTime for Windows is dead, Adobe stuck between rock and hard place - ExtremeTech). Discouraging, but now I remember thinking that this would be an inevitable conclusion.

FYI, I've tried the MXF OP1a JPEG2000 format with alpha channels and results are promising.

but if the 32-bit quicktime files are no longer supported, and do I need the cheap channel that codecs need to use?

Hey Nick, this applies to certain codecs only. We include native functionality for a wide range of .mov files that will remain supported indefinitely.

Thank you, Steve.  Will there eventually be a complete list of all affected codecs?  Or will the only indication be the error under events when importing?  I think we got the event/warning when importing an Avid DV 50 4:2:2 MOV.  Appreciate the quick response.
