With due respect, running the Handbrake clips through Compressor to ProRes or uncompressed will work in FCP, but the quality will suck with the biggest capital “S” you’ve ever seen. I know, that’s how I got burned with this stupid tool last year. Client forced Handbrake on me.
Lisa,
Streamclip is really easy, just open up the VOB files, and go to export/Quicktime, all the codecs are available including ProRes, and you can set your frame rate, everything. Totally viable tool for this.
Have a wonderful day.
