prores422(hq) export looks degraded when imported back into premiere.
Hi I’m in my final stages of exporting a cut.
Only problem is when i import the prores quicktime and lay it up against the cut it is clear that the image is degraded.
Text looks like it has fine lines running through it and picture quality is soft and is darker.
When i look at the quicktime alone there are no lines running through the image.
Cheers
Chris

Hi Chris,
Do you mean that you are exporting a cut and then re importing it into PrPro? You will only need to export to Prores if that is your deliverable, otherwise just encode your deliverable out of PrPro through AME. Unlike FCP, Premiere will re transcode Prores material back into Prores and Yes I have seen a visible degradation in an prores export compared to the original, but probably not noticeable to someone who has less discerning eyes. For that reason alone, I use FCP when I need to cut a Prores deliverable. How does it look on your reference monitor through your I/O card?

This won’t help Christopher today, but it’s worth noting that Premiere Pro CC can smart-render ProRes material (on a Mac) like FCP does: copying compressed frame data from source file to output file untouched, not actually decompressing and re-encoding.

That’s great to know! Is there an option for smart rendering or does it always do that with ProRes material?

It’s automatic. While Pr has had limited support for smart rendering before, it now includes DV, DVCProHD, AVC-Intra, XDCAM, XDCAM-EX, XDCAM-HD, ProRes and Animation in MOV (Mac only), and DNxHD in both MXF and MOV.
