Introduced in 2021, this Adobe MediaCore plugin offers maximum flexibility. It reads .7th files and writes any format out to .7th formats, and is accessible in Media Encoder directly, and for use with After Effects and Premiere Pro. For example, in After Effects, Choose File > Export > Add to Media Encoder Queue and Media Encoder will open. Your After Effects composition will appear in the Media Encoder queue, and Media Encoder can then do the rendering, freeing up After Effects to continue working.

For example After Effects connects directly with Media Encoder:
There are two files: •Exporter7th.prm •Importer7th.prm Place these in C:\Program Files\Adobe\Common\Plug-ins\7.0\MediaCore. Admin privileges are required to write to this folder. If these subfolders do not exist, just create them. To test if the importer plugin has loaded correctly, run Adobe Media Encoder and browse to a folder with .7th or .sth files (RGB or YCbCr 4:2:2) and thumbnails should appear in the Media Browser window. To test if the exporter plugin has loaded correctly, run Adobe Media Encoder and create a new export job – the new exporter should be present under the title ‘7thSense’. If installing over an existing plugin, preferences may not display correctly. Delete the Adobe Media Encoder preferences file (typically under Users\[USERNAME]\Documents\Adobe\Adobe Media Encoder\[VERSION]\Presets\PresetTree.xml) and restart Media Encoder. |
