Bash script/guide for running Adobe Premiere on Linux distributions partially based on https://forum.mattkc.com/viewtopic.php?t=337 (Thanks Lego Island guy)

A Windows 10 install / or files from the system32 folder are required.

What's working?

  • Mercury Playback Engine (Partial) OpenCL on AMD/Intel(?)/Nvidia(?) GPUs (Nvidia should use CUDA instead) (Check the forum link)
  • Most of the user interface (Although it is a bit slow in certain tabs)
  • Hardware encoding for H.264 and H.265 (on export)

Keep in mind this script is only tested for Adobe Premiere v24.0.3.2, no Adobe, nor Microsoft files are provided on this page!

Adobe Premiere must be installed using Windows since the installer does not like Wine ;(

I ran the script, what now?

Ensure the winetricks package is installed. If your wine path differers from the default ~/.wine/ run the follwing command:

export WINEDIR=/my/wine/dir/

Then in the same terminal run

winetricks dxvk gdiplus fontsmooth=rgb corefonts

Finally run

winecfg

And add the following DLL overrides

You are now ready to use OpenCL, just don't forget to enable it under File> Project settings > General

I found X workaround for Y issue!

Please post it to the issues tab! I will update the guide and/or install script!

Q&A

Why do you use the opengl32 dll from Windows?

The builtin version of opengl32 may cause non functional video previews.
