I’m keeping it broad by not specifying a distro. I’m just curious is this a real option for actual editing professionals? As far as I understand you can make it work by running under Wine, but I’m guessing this comes with significant drawbacks. I’m having trouble finding any information on both the current state of things with running Premiere under linux (most info seems to be from 2018 for some reason), and the extent of the drawbacks in a quantifiable way.

I’m generally a pretty happy Mac OS user, but I always want to keep options open. I haven’t really tried to use Linux on desktop since the late 00s.

    Last time I looked into passthrough (for qemu), it was non-trivial to set up, though. Has that gotten any easier?

      It’s not something I would trust my mother to be able to setup but if you are a regular Linux user then it shouldn’t be too hard for you.

        And it’s a one-time setup. Once it’s working, it’ll keep working, unless wondering drastically changes with iommub groups or something (i.e. check before doing major BIOS updates).

      i think its mostly the same but now its easier to separate the iommu groups because i think the ACS patch was upstreamed? so id give it a try
