With our new plugin, you can now seamlessly access all your Grabyo content within Adobe Premiere Pro. It enables you to effortlessly browse and import video files directly from your Grabyo account into an Adobe Premiere Pro project. As a result, all video-on-demand (VOD) content created in Grabyo, including multiple audio tracks, captions, and markers, is readily available for use in your Adobe Premiere Pro projects.
How it works
Download the plugin from Adobe Creative Cloud Marketplace
Ensure you are logged in to Grabyo with your user account
Navigate to the Adobe Premier Pro Workspace
From the toolbar, select WINDOW > EXTENSIONS > GRABYO
Select the campaign and assets of your choice and hit the DOWNLOAD TO ADOBE button
📕 Note: The Adobe Premier Plugin supports version 22.0 or higher.
Functionalities
Some of the key features that this plugin supports are:
Search for assets by name
Download an asset individually
View and download sidecar files for an asset
Download markers with an asset
Bulk download assets
Auto-update the list of assets when new items are created
✅ Tip: To download a sidecar file (audio file or captions), you'd need to click on the arrow icon on the left-hand side of an asset within the campaign view. This way, you can download separately the sidebar files if needed.
Markers, on the other hand, will be automatically applied to the clip when downloaded.
Search for an asset
To search for an asset, you can type into the search box in the top right-hand corner of the screen. Note that this uses the same search engine as the Campaign page in Grabyo.
📕 Note: Currently, the search functionality only supports searching by name.
