Cinec Plin Plug-in Works with Adobe Premiere Pro CS 5.5, CS 6.0 and CC

Cinemartin said today that its new Cinec Plin plug-in would let Premiere Pro editors working on Windows machines export directly from the timeline using both ProRes and HEVC H.265 codecs.

The company said all versions of ProRes 422 are supported, along with 4444 in the Plin Pro version. A 35-day trial version that encodes ProRes 422 only is available for download.

Cinemartin makes Cinec software for Windows, supporting a variety of codecs including ProRes and H.265, but Cinec Plin is the company's first plug-in.

Plin comes in three different versions. The standard version currently sells for €49 ($68) and supports output at up to 1080p and 30fps in ProRes 422 (including LT and HQ variants) and 4444 using a single CPU score. The pro version is €149 ($206) or €99 ($137) for student and noncommercial use, and adds UHD and 4K output at up to 60fps, plus ProRes 4444 and H.265 (v2) RQ encoding using up to two CPU cores. Finally, Plin Gold isn't available yet, but when it shows up it will offer H.265 SQ and HQ encoding and will take advantage of up to six cores for €399 ($551), the company said.
