Technical Specifications
Requirements:
- macOS Intel and Apple Silicon : 10.14 to 13 (Ventura)
- Microsoft Windows 10 and 11
- Adobe 2019 to 2023 included (Premiere Pro, Media Encoder, After Effects, Audition)
- One license is for the same user on up to two computers not used at the same time
Notes:
- A file can contain multiple audio stream and each audio stream can have multiple channels, e.g. Stereo and 5.1). In Premiere Pro, if your first audio stream is shorter than your video track (for example a slow motion video), it will get silenced until the end of the video track length. If your first audio stream is longer than your video stream, it will get cut off at the end of the video track length. If you dislike this behavior which is similar to official Adobe importers, please contact us !

Influx for macOS
1.3.0 (Current version) - Mar 16, 2023
* Files that had no duration in metadata couldn't be imported, now fixed (Thanks Charwin !), especially useful for some videos downloaded from YouTube
* After Effects : alpha channel was sometimes missing, now fixed (Thanks Peter !)
* Audio conforming took a lot of time in some special cases, making Influx decoding unresponsive, now fixed (Thanks Benson !)
* Some files couldn't be decoded and were fixing "unknown pixel format" error, now fixed (Thanks Etan !)
* Some audio streams with more than 8 audio channels were not properly decoded, now fixed
* Update to ffmpeg v5.1 libraries : support for decoding QOI (Quite OK Image Format), JPEG XL, MSN Siren, GEM Raster and Speex audio, only works if you import them with the .influx suffix extension
* macOS : minimum supported version is now 11.0 / 10.16 (Big Sur)
* Various bugs and memory leak fixes

* Various bugs and memory leak fixes
1.2.5 - Feb 2, 2023
* On some footages, Influx has a hard time figuring out the correct range of colors, resulting sometimes in color shifts. As a workaround, for now you can force importing it as Full Range by suffixing your file with !color_range=full.influx (or shorter !cr=full.influx). You can also force importing it as Limited / TV Range by suffixing with !color_range=limited.influx (or shorter !cr=limited.influx). Please send us your footages with incorrect ranges !
* Influx will now reject importing some files if they are corrupted, instead of importing them then generating an error. Influx will also import video streams with incorrect duration as an Image

1.2.4 - Nov 23, 2022
* Windows :
- You can run our Install and Uninstaller .exe in command line like this : 'start "Autokroma" /wait /b "InstallerOrUninstaller.exe" /S', for our uninstaller you can pass an argument to specify which product to uninstall like this : '-Uninstall_Influx'. Do not forget to run your Terminal as Administrator, otherwise you will need user interaction to confirm the Administrator rights prompt. This also works using Microsoft SCCM (System Center Configuration Manager) to automate deployment
- When launching our Installer in recent versions there was a "Do you want to allow this app from an unknown publisher to make changes to your device ?" yellow popup, now correctly replaced with the good Verified publisher blue popup

- In rare cases the wrong frame was being decoded
* New option : you can suffix your file with !rft=1.influx (or !reset_first_timestamp=1.influx) in order to force Influx to import the file and set the timestamp of the first frame to 0, useful for weird or corrupted videos (Thanks Marco !). If your videos is corrupted we recommend re encoding them with Media Encoder (using Influx of course) and edit with this new file
* Some files are faster to import now, as well as performance improvements when decoding codecs such as Vidvox HAP, this will only apply to newly imported files. In old projects, you will need to reload each imported file to benefit from this
* Settings and License popup :
- New checkbox to disable Influx frame cache
- New button to clear Premiere Pro cache, useful when you get weird behavior in PrPro and you want to reset it

* Licensing bug fix
1.1.0 - Nov 26, 2021
* Support for Adobe Audition 2019 (v12) onwards until 2022 included, as always same features on both Windows and macOS and Apple silicon support. Influx adds support for audio and video of FLAC (.FLAC, .AVI), Vorbis (.WebM), FFV1 (.AVI, .MOV, .MKV), H.265 / HEVC (.MKV, .MOV, .MP4), VP8 / VP9 (.MKV, .WebM), AV1 (.WebM .MP4), .FLV, .BIK Bink V1, Opus (.WebA .WebM).
* To use new formats in Audition with Influx, you might need to suffix your files with .influx (changing the extension) so that they're correctly imported with Influx, as Audition has issues with third party importers. This is also why the "Use Influx instead of default importers" setting doesn't work for all formats in Audition, whereas it works fine in Premiere Pro, Media Encoder and After Effects.

- Adobe will try to use Influx if it cannot import a file natively, for example when a specific file or codec is not supported (even if the container is supported by Adobe it could fail !)
- Suffix your video files with .influx to import them with Influx instead of natively by Adobe, this way you will know for sure it's not Adobe decoding the files. Could be useful for troubleshooting Adobe and working around its bugs. /! BEWARE : if Adobe imports the video stream but not the audio stream (for example because of an incompatible codec), it will import it on its own without Influx, hence without audio ! Even if Influx could decode audio. You should suffix with .influx to work around this
- Use Premiere Pro's DogEars feature to confirm that Influx is being used to decode the files
- For debugging purposes you have the choice in our Settings to enable always overloading Adobe default importers, and also the choice of disabling Influx to mimick uninstalling Influx without actually doing it
* Codecs and containers :
- New .MKV .WebM .AVI .FLV .BIK .OGV .M4V .TS containers etc. as well as a lot of containers already supported by Adobe, can be useful for debugging Adobe's bugs (.MOV .AVI .BOV .MPG .MP4 .WAV .AAC .MXF .QT .MP3 .GIF .VOB etc.)

Influx adds support for audio and video of FLAC (.FLAC, .AVI), Vorbis (.WebM), FFV1 (.AVI, .MOV, .MKV), H.265 / HEVC (.MKV, .MOV, .MP4), VP8 / VP9 (.MKV, .WebM), AV1 (.WebM .MP4), .FLV, .BIK Bink V1, Opus (.WebA .WebM).
* To use new formats in Audition with Influx, you might need to suffix your files with .influx (changing the extension) so that they're correctly imported with Influx, as Audition has issues with third party importers. This is also why the "Use Influx instead of default importers" setting doesn't work for all formats in Audition, whereas it works fine in Premiere Pro, Media Encoder and After Effects.

1.0.1 - Oct 25, 2021
* Various bugs fixes
1.0.0 - Oct 18, 2021
* Autokroma Influx Official Launch :
- Info available in our article https://www.autokroma.com/blog/BETA-For-Influx-Importer-Adobe-Premiere-Pro-After-Effects
- Support and same features for Premiere Pro / Media Encoder 2019 onwards (v13+) and After Effects 2019 onwards (v16+) until 2022 included
- Support and same features for Microsoft Windows 10 and Apple macOS Intel v10.14 (Mojave) onwards as well as Apple silicon (for example M1), more information about it here : https://www.autokroma.com/blog/Apple-Silicon-ARM-M1-Compatibility-with-Adobe-Creative-Cloud-Autokroma
- Adobe will try to use Influx if it cannot import a file natively, for example when a specific file or codec is not supported (even if the container is supported by Adobe it could fail !)
- Suffix your video files with .influx to import them with Influx instead of natively by Adobe, this way you will know for sure it's not Adobe decoding the files. Could be useful for troubleshooting Adobe and working around its bugs. /! BEWARE : if Adobe imports the video stream but not the audio stream (for example because of an incompatible codec), it will import it on its own without Influx, hence without audio ! Even if Influx could decode audio. You should suffix with .influx to work around this
- Use Premiere Pro's DogEars feature to confirm that Influx is being used to decode the files
- For debugging purposes you have the choice in our Settings to enable always overloading Adobe default importers, and also the choice of disabling Influx to mimick uninstalling Influx without actually doing it
* Codecs and containers :
- New .MKV .WebM .AVI .FLV .BIK .OGV .M4V .TS containers etc. as well as a lot of containers already supported by Adobe, can be useful for debugging Adobe's bugs (.MOV .AVI .BOV .MPG .MP4 .WAV .AAC .MXF .QT .MP3 .GIF .VOB etc.)
