videoMatik v0.1.2 (macOS · Apple Silicon)
videoMatik — download videos from any link straight onto your Premiere Pro timeline (Premiere Pro 2026+) · macOS version
Paste a video link into the panel and it downloads and drops the clip onto your active sequence at the playhead.
REQUIREMENT: Apple Silicon (M1 or newer) Mac. Intel Macs are not supported.
What's new in 0.1.2
- H.264 downloads for editor compatibility. YouTube's true "best" video is usually AV1/VP9, which many Premiere builds reject with "unsupported format." videoMatik now downloads the best H.264 (avc1) + AAC and remuxes to MP4 (still no re-encode) — Premiere always decodes it. Trade-off: YouTube H.264 tops out at 1080p, so 1440p/4K sources come down at 1080p.
- New download-glyph icon (from 0.1.1).
Install
- Download and unzip
videoMatik-mac.zip. - Double-click Install videoMatik.app — the first launch can take 10–20 seconds while macOS verifies it; that's normal.
- Approve the plugin install in the Creative Cloud window that opens.
- Restart Premiere Pro ▸ Window ▸ Extensions (UXP) ▸ videoMatik.
Everything is signed and notarized by Apple — no security warnings. Already have an older version? Just run the installer again; it replaces the helper and panel cleanly.
Windows version: see the v0.1.2 release.
