WebM Plugin Not Installing in Premiere Pro CC 2017

[elizabethh10631334]

I've downloaded the fnordware WebP.plugin, and added it to: Macintosh HD/Library/Application Support/Adobe/Common/Plugins/7.0/MediaCore. The only other file in the folder is dummy.txt.

I've restarted my computer and Premiere Pro (both with and without holding down the Shift key, and removing and re-adding the WebM.plugin) and when I go to File/Export/Media, WebM is not listed in the Format dropdown.

Is there a solution to this so I can export a video file to WebM? This post on Adobe Premiere Pro's Facebook page makes me worry it's an update issue. Today we’re releasing the second... - Adobe Premiere Pro | Facebook

Any help is appreciated.

Same problem, please help. I can't finish my project without this.

I ended up exporting to a mv4 and used an online converter to produce the WebM file. Here's a link to the one I used. Free online WebM / VP8 converter

Hope that helps!

Hi Elisabeth,

Regarding the Free online WebM / VP8 converter

Maybe this is a stupid question, but I am asking anyway... Did the online converter work fine – is it a reliable tool, safe and virus free?

Do you have other tools/plugins to recommend?

Best regards,

Maria

Hi,

I recently tried this one https://convertio.co/mp4-webm/

Have you tried it?

Best regards,

Maria

There's no such thing as a stupid question.

It was fine for me - I didnt experience any problems with it. And no I haven't tried convertio.co.

Good luck!
