Premiere Pro CC 2020 and BRAW errors, URGENT HELP - stuck in the middle of project

If it works ... stay with it! Right.

If not, there is an alternative. Ain't this all a joy? Sigh.

OstiaAlex,

Sometimes ... you get what you pay for. The BlackMagic freebie BMRAW plugin works ok ... mostly ... sort-of. Personally, I'm not a big fan of mostly-sort-of.

There is a plugin called BRAW-Studio made by Autokroma that of course you do have to pay for. I suggest trying that one, and paying the small fee for using it each in Premiere and MediaEncoder ... for two reasons:

• It has a preset-setting option available, which is VERY useful;
• It ... just works.

I too have had spotty issues with the BM freebie. The Autokroma one just works. At least for all my BMRAW media. So ... try that, see if it gets the job done. And btw ... I actual purchased my copies via aescripts.com ... which is a handy site with a ton of plugins for the Adobe apps to peruse through. And buying a plugin from there gives you a process for updating and such within their site. Very handy.

Josh,

Which plugin are you using?

I've got both the latest BM plugin ... 1.5.2, and the latest Autokroma plugin installed. Both are working without troubles on my Win10/6-core system, though I prefer the Autokroma plugin because of the presets options there.

Having the same issue. I'll be editing my braw footage and a couple of things are happening constantly:

1. My entire computer crashes.

2. I will double click on a clip and Premiere freezes and gives me the rainbow wheel until I have to force quit.

-----------------------------------------------

Go back to 2019 and finish the project before embarking on 2020 with a fresh project.

I had the same problem using Autokroma codec for braw after 2020 update. Uninstalled autokroma, downloaded and installed Blackmagic RAW 1.5.2 off their site (released not too long ago) everythings peachy. Hope this helps!
