Timeline for Sony FX9 Stabilisation integration with Premiere?

Just a question for the Adobe techs; I'm wondering if the rumoured intergration of Sony's FX9 stabilisation technology with Premiere will happen soon?   At the moment the metadata has to be read in Catalyst Browse, but this is a messy work-around when trying to cut a complete project within Premiere.  Sony has stated that they are working with major NLE companies to have this amazing feature integrated as a plugin, but I have heard anythting more from the NLE manufacturers.  Is this something on the near horizon for Adobe?

 

Here is a sample of what can be done using just the meta data generated by FX9’s built-in gyro.

    Though we work closely with Sony, Adobe has publicly announced no plans for such integration.

    As a long time Premiere user that is very upsetting. If another major editing software supports this it will all but force FX9 users out of premiere. Having just received my FX9 it is extremely shaky (especially with long lenses) without using the software. The software smooths it out well but it creates a workflow nightmare for docu-style and b-roll shoots.

      I know companies can't disclose product development but this sounds very final.  Sony have made public statements at product presentations both online and at launch events that they are working with major NLE manufacturers to integrate the new gyro stabilisation feature.  But not Adobe it seems.  It is upsetting.

      Well, since Premiere Pro still lacks such basic video editing features as color correction using color targets (not that users haven't been asking for these features for years), it's quite difficult cu call it a "major NLE" these days; so that could explain why Sony is not working on this with Adobe. Now that there are plenty of Sony cameras with gyro stabilization, from "pro" FX9 to the pocket ZV-1, I guess that the first major NLE to have the support for this will swoop many users of these cameras up. Can't wait for it, I'm sick and tired of having to use Catalyst just for stabilization.

        First, this is primarily a user to user forum with oversight by the product support staff as Adobe views things. So not a place the development hangs to talk.

         

        Second, Adobe corporate legal policy is to never disclose features until the release is either dropped or will be within a few days.

         

        So we will know if they're doing something when it appears ...
