Hi all, just a quick update. Reinstalling FCPX did NOT fix it for me. However, this did: https://www.adobe.com/support/downloads/detail.jsp?ftpID=5411

Thanks for your help everyone.

GH2 should be the obvious choice. $650, no recording limit, and firmware hacks that make it easily exceed the performance of any DSLR. The only areas where it can’t quite match, say, the 5D mark III, are lowlight performance (although some hacks bring it damn near close), and shallow depth of field. Since you’re also considering getting a small-sensor camcorder, I assume that neither of those are absolutely essential.

I had a 7D for two years before selling it and picking up a GH2 a couple months back. Never regretted it once. Spend the extra cash on good lenses, like the Voigtländer 17.5mm and 25mm f/0.95s, Zuiko 12mm f/2, or your favorite flavor of vintage glass.

Thanks for the reply. I am pressing Queue, and am being correctly sent to Media Encoder. However, once there, I do not see any option for ProRes.

Here is the dialogue box when I press export in Premiere, including the settings I would like to use.

Here is the Adobe Media Encoder window that appears after I press Queue.

I couldn’t take a screenshot with the drop-down menus selected, but under Format I am limited to F4V, FLV, H.264, H.264 (Legacy), and MP3. With F4V selected, I have a number of presets available (including various “Match Source Attributes”, Mobile, PC & TV, Phone & Tablet, and Web options). H.264 gives all of the standard device and web output options. Obviously, neither Flash, H.264, nor MP3 formats will give me the ProRes preset that I need.

As you can see in the upper right panel, when I search “prores”, no presets appear.

Just to reiterate, Premiere recognizes that I have ProRes available as a codec, and exports my footage as ProRes just fine. The issue is that Media Encoder doesn’t give me that option. Unless I am missing something? Thanks again.

I’m having the same problem, and updating Premiere and AME to to 6.0.1 and reinstalling FCPX didn’t fix it. See my thread here: https://forums.creativecow.net/readpost/3/926026
