Activity Forums Apple Final Cut Pro Legacy Pro Res won’t Open

  • Pro Res won’t Open

    Is there a reason neither Final Cut NOR Quicktime will open my pro res file? Here’s the name of the file [Pekurny’s Sequence Copy-“Consumed” Project – Pro Res-Apple Intermediate Codec (AIC).mov_NTSC_4000]

    It won’t open in Final Cut or Quicktime. I’m currently converting it to h264, but it SHOULD open by itself shouldn’t it?

    Thanks.

    What is that?
    You do not mean that this is the name of a file, don’t you?

    Sounds like it’s AIC not ProRes.

    I’ll admit I don’t completely understand video codecs. I’m just trying to get the audio, but even after converting to h264 the audio won’t work.

    Try a file name that makes a bit more sense… like one that doesn’t have special characters, maybe is a little shorter, and simply ends in .mov

    Get Info on the file to see what file type it is.
