  Very Best program to convert to Pro Res?

  Posted by David Mayer on November 14, 2013 at 2:27 pm

  Is there a better way to use compressor to
  convert to pro res? It keeps crashing and
  can’t handle very many files at once.

  Set Target and Setting
  Apple – Format – Quicktime – Pro Res 422

  Or is there an awesome conversion program
  I can buy? I don’t care about the cost – just
  want the best one.

  iMac 2.8 GHz Intel Core i7, 8 GB
  OS 10.6.8
  Final Cut Pro 7.0

  the latest version of Compressor is supposed to be less crash-prone than the earlier ones.

  Resolve is also good at this (and is free)

  plus you should upgrade to FCP 7.03

  it might not fix the current problem but will fix others.
