Nov 6 Tall Guy Films: DNxHR Performance in Premiere Pro CC 2017

How good is the newly added native QuickTime DNxHD / DNxHR support in Premiere Pro CC 2017? Tall Guy Films shares the results of his tests, and based on the video thumbnail, it's not a spoiler to say it's impressive. Whether or not you experience the same results using the native QuickTime Avid codecs in Premiere Pro CC 2017, the important thing is Adobe has listened to the needs of it's customers. This is a big win for Windows users in particular!

Adobe just announced native support for DNxHD and DNxHR QuickTime exporting, but is it any better than third party plugin support? I did some tests to find out. —Tall Guy Films
