Use Compressor. Use a very low bit rate. Around 2.5.

Playback Pro is the only thing out there that will do what you want from your computer. All others are just playback such as QuickTime 7 and Digital Heaven Prop Player.

Look at renting. The AJA KiPro, BlackMagic Hyperdeck and Atomis Ninja/Samurai/Blade will playback ProRes files. KiPro can create sophisticated playlists.

Try using Compressor to convert to ProRes.

1440 is an anamorphic of 1920×1080.

If you started with ProRes footage your sequence setting should be ProRes 1920×1080.

720p is 59.94 and 1080i is 29.97. What is your sequence setting?

1440 is an anamorphic of 1920×1080. If you bring your footage into FCP correctly, it would have crated a 1920×1080 sequence. Assuming your footage is HDV, the best way to deal with the footage is to transcode it to ProRes. That being said, you can try to copy your original sequence, create a ProRes 1920×1080 sequence and paste that into the ProRes sequence. Render away export and you should have the correct result.

Look at Other World Computing for solutions. Macsales.com. I would recommend the Qx2.
