Title: MLV to CDNG Mac?
Post by: Danson Delta-40 on June 20, 2014, 08:00:37 PM
PPro 2014 apparently now has support for CinemaDNG. Is there any program that converts straight from MLV to CinemaDNG on a mac?

Danke!

But it's still pink? I don't understand why.

RAWMagic DNGs from MLV files shouldn't look pink in Premiere. What version of RAWMagic are you running?

Thomas.

I'm using RAWMagic Lite 1.1.3. ?

Maybe i'm doing the import procedure wrong? I'm using the "Media browser"?

You can't convert MLVs with the lite version, only the pro version which will run you 40$.

Maybe I'm about to pay a fairly high price for not keeping my self updated  :(

I've recorded a whole wedding in .raw as i usually do (because I haven't paid much attention about the .mlv format). I'm using a RAWmagic workflow, i.e. convert to cDNG -> AE -> Lossless out -> Import PP. But as I can see, it is now possible to import cDNG directly to PP without AE. But does it really require a .mlv format? I mean, it's gonna be a cNDG format anyway?

That is correct, it doesn't matter if it's .raw or .mlv, once converted to CDNG, you'll be able to work with it in Premiere.

I still think you need the paid version of RAWMagic to be able to get CDNG which display correctly in Premiere.

I will give the paid version a try.  Thanks.
