Premiere Pro crashes if Blackmagic BRAW plugin is present
Posted: Wed Apr 07, 2021 1:04 pm
I hope this is the correct place to post this issue, please bear with me if not.
I edit with Adobe Premiere, right now I have both 2020 and 2021 installed on my 2017 MacBook Pro, with OSX Big Sur.
I occasionally need to import braw material, so I installed the Blackmagic import plugin. All works well as far as importing and using the clips.
My issue comes when trying to add a sequence to Media Encoder's queue from Premiere 2021. Even when I am NOT using .braw material, and not using the plugin in any way, Premiere crashes and will not enqueue to Media Encoder. I CAN encode single segments or sequences right from Premiere, but I cannot make a list of clips in Media Encoder. This issue is not present if I stick to Premiere 2020.
Help from an Adobe support person suggested I remove plugins and add them back one at a time until I find the culprits. When I remove Blackmagic package from my plugins folder, I am able to enqueue. If I add it back, no dice.
I know this is a Blackmagic forum, and I'm presenting an Adobe issue- but I'm sure the issue is coming from the Blackmagic plugin. So I'm asking for help from any of you with knowledge of the plugin's compatibility with both/either Premiere 2021 and Big Sur.
Thanks for any tips/tricks/ideas/workarounds!
