    APCN format

    Posted by Mark Slocombe on January 18, 2014 at 10:02 am

    I uploaded a FCP X export clip to Shutterstock, as 1280 X 720 @ 25 fps ProRes 422 MOV (originally XDCAM EX).

    Shutterstock is presenting it as HD 1280 X 720 @ 25 fps APCN.

    Can FCP X, Premiere and Avid use the clip if buyers download it as APCN ? ( I haven’t seen APCN before )

    Movie files use a string of four characters called a FourCC identifier to tell the system what codec they use, and “APCN” is the FourCC identifier for the Apple ProRes 422 codec.
