Adobe Premiere Pro Effect Preset Format | Adobe Systems | Settings Files |
The .PRFPSET file extension stands for the Premiere Pro Effect Preset File. These files are associated with Adobe Premiere Pro, a video editing software from Adobe Systems. The PRFPSET files contain settings and parameters of a particular effect developed in the application, or custom created in the users. The application uses these custom PRFPSET files to save the presets that are used to quickly apply a same effect on multiple video clips at once.
File Contents
The PRFPSET files contain code relating to the parameters such as intensity, colour balance, brightness, key frames, animation properties and other related settings of an effect. They are saved in a Json format which makes them human-readable. The files can also be opened and edited using text editors, though one should take caution when doing so.
Compatibility
The PRFPSET file extension is supported mainly by Premiere Pro CC and CS editions. The presets created in these versions can be used with earlier releases such as 5.5, 6.0, and 7.0. The files can also be used with other applications that support this type of format, such as those from the Adobe Creative Suite. PRFPSET files differ from ProRes preset files (.PRFRES) but can be similarly used to speed up post production processes that depend upon repetitive tasks.
Programs for WINDOWS system
Programs for MAC system
After installing the required software, the operating system will usually automatically associate an unknown file type (in this case .PRFPSET) with the new application. If this does not happen, we can help the system a bit by selecting the software for it, which it should always use to open files with the .PRFPSET extension.
When choosing the software we can select the system to use this software every time.
Remember!
Using it for the first time it is good to check whether the .PRFPSET file opened in the application can be read by us and opens in a way that allows us to use it. If everything is in order, select this option the next time you open a file with the .PRFPSET extension. However, if the file has not opened correctly, we have to look for a different software, with which we can open files with the .PRFPSET extension. Select a different software from our list and install it on your computer. After the software is installed, repeat inspection openings of a .PRFPSET file. Sometimes you have to repeat the operation several times.
Other instructions
If none of the programs listed by us to work with the .PRFPSET file has not meet your expectations, you can try searching other websites. But remember to avoid downloading programs "that can open any file". These applications not only have very limited functionality, but may also expose you to expense tens of dollars when purchasing a license.
In the vast majority of cases you will find the program dedicated to support the .PRFPSET file, or any other file format. In addition, there is a chance that it will be a free program, and its functionality (concerning the .PRFPSET file) will be extended to the maximum.
It is also good to check
- if the .PRFPSET file has no errors
- or if it has been copied (or downloaded by the browser) thoroughly
