The reason I want to export back to prores is because I am to deliver to a client one high quality quicktime file of a project that is currently broken up into multiple files and arranged in premiere. My workflow has been to import raw BDMV to premiere, export prores mov’s to after effects, then effects are added and new prores mov’s exported back to premiere. I do have final cut and I could easily set up the files in a final cut project. If I then exported a same as footage quicktime within final cut, would this solve my problem and give me one prores quicktime mov without quality loss when compared to the prores mov’s in the timeline?

I just found a solution:
https://www.jonathanlaliberte.com/2007/10/19/move-all-windows-to-your-main-screen/
This is a script that makes brings all active windows to the main screen.
Works great.

I am experiencing a similar problem. When exporting from Premiere CS4, Adobe Media Encoder opens, however I cannot find the window. I recently got rid of a dual monitor system on my macbook pro and I’m pretty sure that’s the problem here. I deleted the premiere pro preferences in Users/[user] /Library/Application Support/Adobe/Premiere Pro/4.0. This did not help as I am still experiencing the problem. Any suggestions?

In case anyone is following this thread with the same issue, I solved my problem by processing each clip individually with JES deinterlacer, a free app:
https://www.apple.com/downloads/macosx/video/jesdeinterlacer.html
It can process mutliple clips and it determines the fields style on its own.

Okay. I get it. Thanks.
I have a few additional relative questions:
1. I’m working on a project with a lot of clips and I don’t know which clips I’m going to use in the final edit. Is there a way I can edit in 29.97 and then convert the final file as an export? Or should I convert all of the clips to 24p first? I’m concerned about quality loss, so I assume I should convert them all first, which leads me to my next question.
2. Which is the best method for batch converting back to 24p?
3. How do I determine the fields style?
4. In using an HFS10, is the fields style always the same, or does it vary from clip to clip?
-
That’s what the problem has to be, because on a five minute track, the audio is off about 6 frames.
Somewhere there must be a drop frame misinterpretation. If I set a sequence to 24 fps, does it actually mean 23.98? And even so, if I export an audio clip set to the same framerate, shouldn’t it work out?
-
I’ve been keeping the HZ consistent, all 48 KHz. And, I’ve been exporting using the “audio to AIFF(s)” option. I tried export quicktime and just exporting the audio, but I experience the same issue.
-
Thanks. I think keeping it all 29.97 in After Effects for the first export is the way to go. From there, another tip I picked up is to then use compressor in final cut. There is an option there “so source frames play at 24 frames per second”. This keeps all frames and slows down the footage 25%. I’ve also read that I can do this with Cinema Tools without the need to render, but I’ve never used that before. I’m new to final cut, having recently switched from Premiere. It would be great to hear if anyone knows how to do this in Cinema Tools, but maybe I should post that in another forum.

I learned that what I am trying to do is called re-conforming. Now I know the term, but I’m still not sure how to do this in after effects.
