    After working a couple weeks with the BlackMagic BRAW plugin, I've gone back to the Autokroma plugin. For now at least. Both work pretty good.

      I have been using Autokroma's BRAW plugin for a couple months, and it worked ok. Saw this, uninstalled the Autokroma plugin and installed the BM official one.

       

      Very similar, a couple options that didn't actually work in the Autokroma one do in the official BlackMagic one.

       

      The only pain is I've needed to recreate the projects as after uninstalling the Autokroma and installing the BM plugin, even rebooting  ... the program will not display the media and gives a warning message.

       

      Importing into a new project file works to get past that.

       

      And free is a very good price.

          I filmed some footage on a BMD URSA Mini PRO in RAW 4:3 codec. When I tried to import it into PPro CC 2017 using media browser, it came up as 'Unsupported file type or damaged file' error. Everything I filmed using the ProRes codec imported fine. I didnt get a chance to film with RAW uncompressed..so not sure if that works or not. Does Premiere Pro support RAW DNG Files?

          Adobe supports only fully uncompressed raw not 3:1. You will need a professional program like Resolve for this.

          You could make proxies in Resolve, with XML to premiere for editing. export Premiere XML for Resolve and check "Link to camera files" when importing.
