ProRes 422 codec
Posted by Kurt Murphy on January 9, 2008 at 10:09 pmIs there a ProRes 422 codec that we can load into our Macs that DON’T have Final Cut. Right now we can’t view any movies from Final Cut using that codec on a machine that doesn’t have Final Cut….
thanks,
kurt murphy

January 9, 2008 at 10:16 pmNo, just like DVCPRO-HD it has to be installed.
I’m surprised someone has not found a way to
copy the necessary files to another system to
at least enable playback of the codec in a non fcp mac. -

January 9, 2008 at 10:16 pmThe official answer to that is NO, but I’ve wondered myself what would happen if you take the Quicktime component from a Mac that has the ProRes422 codec and transferred it to a Mac that doesn’t.
I’m not saying to do this – I’m just wondering OUT LOUD if that would work.

ProRes and the rest of FCP standard codecses are installed with it.Christian Pettersen

Root/Library/Quicktime/AppleProRes422.componentYou probably have to have QT 7.3 on the new computer, but yeah it works.
