VR Headsets in Premiere

  • January 25, 2017

I'm starting to edit VR & 360 videos in premiere and I understand that premiere lets you wear a VR headset to edit. I have three questions about this:

Which VR headsets work in premiere?

Are there pros/cons to these options?

Is there an overall best headset to use with premiere?

    Both the HTC Vive and Oculus Rift work in Premiere 2018.

    • Install Steam and Steam VR
    • Start SteamVR
    • Start Premiere
    • Enable Edit -> Preferences -> Playback -> Adobe Immersive Environment

    You should now see the preview for your open project in your headset. In the current version you can use the controllers to pause and play or jump to a specific part in the timeline. In addition you can add the VR view button to the preview window if you don't have a VR headset handy. Search for VR under the effects for transitions and useful tools like Plan to Sphere.

      Ekmanwinroth,

      Sorry for the issue. Which headset are you using? Hope you can get it working. It's fantastic editing without having to take the headset on and off.

      Hope we can help.

      Regards,
      Kevin

      From what I've found the Oculus Rift was supported by the Mettle plugin that was acquired by Adobe and is now part of Premiere 2018. I have an HTC Vive and I can not enable "Track Head-mounted Display".  There is a program called Revive that makes the Vive pretend to be a Rift and I've seen reports saying that works with Premiere 2017 and the Mettle plugin. I'll try it and let you know.
