Aescripts AfterCodecs v1.11.5 (Win/Mac) For After Effects, Premiere & Media Encoder

AfterCodecs v1.11.5 is a powerful native exporter plugin for Adobe After Effects, Premiere Pro, and Media Encoder, designed to deliver high-quality and lightweight video renders without relying on QuickTime. Compatible with both Windows and macOS, it enables exporting to professional codecs like ProRes, H264, H265, and HAP—all directly from within Adobe apps.

This plugin is ideal for creators looking for faster exports, more file size control, better YouTube-optimized renders, and broad codec support not available natively in Adobe tools.

Key Features:

No QuickTime Required:
Export ProRes, H264, H265, and HAP natively on both macOS and Windows.
Wide Codec Support:
[MOV] ProRes: Official profiles (Proxy, LT, 422, HQ, 4444, XQ) + Unofficial (422 Ultra, 4444 Light). Alpha supported in 4444/XQ.
[MOV] HAP: Includes Hap, Hap Alpha, Hap Q, Hap Q Alpha with GPU acceleration and compression customization.
[MOV / MP4] x264: Top-tier H264 compression with a dedicated YouTube upload profile.
[MOV / MP4] x265: ~25% smaller files than x264 at the same quality (slower encode).
x264 RGB: Great for storing non-YUV data like UV/Alpha/3D passes.
Cross-Platform Compatibility:
Supports Windows 7/8.1/10 and macOS Sierra to Catalina.
Adobe CC Integration:
Fully integrated with After Effects, Premiere Pro, and Media Encoder versions CC 2014 to CC 2024.

Limitations to Note:

Rendering multiple output modules in AE (macOS) simultaneously doesn’t work.
Not recommended for broadcast use; ProRes support is unofficial.
H264/H265 exports require even-numbered resolutions unless using YUV 4:4:4.
Known field order issue: Lower field first in H264 may be misread by Adobe as top field first.
