Transcode ProRes files to MKV, MP4, AVI, MPG, H.264, FLV, WebM and more

Final Cut Pro enables videographers to export projects as Apple ProRes 422, Apple ProRes 422 (HQ), Apple ProRes 422 (LT), Apple ProRes 422 (Proxy) and Apple ProRes 4444 in different settings depending on their final use.

Sometimes video editors need a third party application to convert these Apple ProRes clips to other formats like MKV, MP4, AVI, MPG, H.264, FLV, WebM and more to fit other uses, that’s because Final Cut Pro itself doesn’t support rewrapping exported ProRes to these video formats and so is Apple Compressor.

You probably have been in the same situation as mentioned above. Apple ProRes is an intermediate codec that provides high-quality, frame-accurate editing. Apple describes ProRes as visually lossless. That means while data is being removed during compression, the resulting images do not suffer from image degradation. Unlike H.264, ProRes is not a distribution codec for finished work.
