Beta version 25 out now

[Francis-Crossman]

Hey, beta users! 

Starting today, August 5, Premiere Pro betas will switch from v24.6 to the next major version, v25. We make this switch once a year when we get close to shipping the last dot release of one major version and switch to the beta of the next major version. 

Premiere Pro will guide you through the project upgrade and automatically version the project file. Unless you specifically save over the original file, you will have a backup.

Like previous major version changes, Premiere Pro projects saved in v25 cannot be opened in previous versions of Premiere Pro, including the shipping version (v24.5 at the time of this post). This means that a project opened and saved in the beta of v25 cannot be taken back to the shipping version. 

It is also required to have v25 of After Effects and Media Encoder to make use of Dynamic Link.  It's recommended that all three be updated at the same time.

As always, we recommend that you do not use a beta version of Premiere Pro for critical production work, but we’re reminding you here just in case. 

More information about the Creative Cloud beta program is here.

Is there any info on what V25 offers in terms of new features?

Media Encoder 25 has not been uploaded into the CC app.

Installing 2025 beta (in my case Ae) prevents Photoshop public release to open.

edit typo.

Public and Beta Ps works normally on my side after updating to Pr Beta and Ae Beta 2025 (win 10).

[Ann Bens]

I am not alone in this. But I am on W11.

Might want to checkout the Ps and Ai forums.

I can confirm this is the case even on the Mac side. My home desktop PS public would hang on opening with the v25 betas installed. Removing them fixed the issue. Hopefully the next builds are more stable.

Same issue here with Photoshop. Both beta and public Photoshops won't open.

[Ali Jaber]

Wow, I wonder why it's working normally on my side.

[Ann Bens]

I saw a button for Active Direct manipulation in the Program window and now its gone...........

Ah its not gone: only shows when clip is selected. Nice feature.

After today's updates (Aug. 9th), Photoshop Beta and Public are both  still crashing at "reading preferences."

After updating my project doesn't remain open but crashes every time I open it. Will you be fixing this soon?

[Mike3634396307s2]

How do i get this? I dont have the option to update to v25

[Bruce Bullis]

The current shipping version of Premiere Pro is 25.0, available via CC Desktop.
I have no idea why that's not available on your system; are you operating in an enterprise environment?

[mOdatVideo]

Why is it incompatable with Film Impact Plug-in?

[Bruce Bullis]

We interact frequently with Film Impact; we have received zero reports of Film Impact plugins being incompatible with Premiere Pro (any version). 

Have you submitted crash reports, associated with the email address you're using on these forums?

[Ann Bens]

OP has no crashes. He cannot get the plugin licensed, is stuck on watermark.
