Adobe Media Encoder Support of WEBM Files?

Community Beginner ,
Jul 09, 2016 Jul 09, 2016

Hi - I need to know if the Adobe Media Encoder supports WebM files, and if it can convert a WebM file (of at least 250mb) to a standard video file, such as mp4 or Quicktime.

Thank you!

Hi Anastasia,

There is no native support for .WebM files in Adobe Media Encoder. Please make a feature request.

Fnord Software has created free plug-ins for both WebM and Ogg.

Why doesn't Adobe just make the codecs so we don't have to dance around this issue?

Hi, I'm new to this! So I can't export to webm or ogg? That was the only reason I was starting to learn Adobe Media Encoder

Thank you! Although… The first one (WebM) is provided "as is"and the second one (OGG) is a beta, so very likely shouldn't be used in production. Thus, this reply shouldn't actually be marked a solution. These are very widely used formats I can't believe AME can't export.

This really isn't the solution.

That is for PREMIER PRO - this is not for Media Encoder.

The insrtuctions are scant, if not cryptic.

This has been an issue for YEARS now.

Where is the Adobe Media Encoder plugin to allow conversion to OGG?

Please quit sending us to the GitHub link for Premiere Pro.

Would someone at Adobe answer this? I find this very silly for a purpose built media encoder....

How?
ReadMe mention a plug-in folder to copy the "Ogg.prm" file, but  I can't find it (I'm using Adobe CC).

How is this still not fixed???
It's been 7 years. Still no support for webm.
Why do we pay the bs subscription fees if nothing is getting fixed?

Hi, 

 

Please add webm support in Media Encoder. 

Last year I was working with fnod plugin to convert to webms, but now it's impossible to run on the new M1 chip macs and no way for me to match the files from last year. It should really be a native feature. 

 

Thanks, 

Esther

WebM from fnordware is not working. Media are imported, voice working but video missing (Adobe Premiere Pro 2023 23.3.0).

 

@ADOBE - WebM codec is a problem for years? Why I can't import these files to Adobe?

It is some kind of hope but when I see that Microsoft Stream save its files as webm and there is no possibilities to edit it. New Ms Stream doesn't allow to cut or edit files.

Roadmap? Really?  Question was asked back in 2016 and still no native support.  Quite a few codecs that delivery platforms request that Adobe doesn't support *sigh*
