Planning on using ProRes for the first time
A few questions.
I have 8 camera shoot coming up that will be recorded to HDCAM SR (4:2:2) and then I will capture via a MacPro with a Kona3 card.My Raid drives get just over 400 MB/s how do I figure out how many streams I can pull?
How much difference is there between regular ProRes and HQ?
If I’m over the limit on thorough put would it be better to go with 8bit HQ or 10 Reg?

I’ve just completed a project at 1080 ProRes HQ and the data rate for the files was just 22mb/sec – so you should have very few problems with throughput…..
The only issues I came across were FCP’s dislike for dissolving from one shot to another when speed FX were included in the mix – I had to render out the Speed FX first and bring it back in…
ProResHQ really is just another codec – albeit – a slightly flaky one at this time….. But not that flaky – honestly.
