Install Lame MP3 codec (you may need it for the audio).

Install DivX codec (probably as a part of DivX Pro, or DivX Create bundle).

Alternatively, see the Xvid page for a step-by-step guide.

Preferably, export your Premiere Pro project to an “uncompressed AVI” or “DV AVI” file and then use other software to encode to DivX.

Convert them to “uncompressed AVI” or “DV AVI” before importing them into Premiere Pro. Using DivX files as source clips will cause you a lot of grief.

Input: DivX uses temporal compression which is not suitable for editing.

Now, whether it works? You probably need to talk to other users (the point of this thread), or to DivX directly. It'll also be limited by the usual Video for Windows limitations, ie you won't be able to handle / create media beyond a filesize of a gig. This plugin will work with any codec that is exposed by your OS via the Video for Windows API, so if you install DivX, presumably it's adding their codecs to that list.

We have default ones that allow interaction with AVIs and QT movies it's also possible to write custom ones (for example, Matrox, AJA, BlackMagic, BlueFish are 3rd party companies that provide their own for the formats they support).ĭivX doesn't provide a custom plugin for Premiere, so it falls on Premiere's default AVI compiler plugin to do the work. Premiere has the notion of Importers & Compilers.

Wil Renczes explains why DivX doesn't work well:.

See Using DivX Pro™ with Adobe Premiere Pro for step by step instructions exporting to DivX format.
