Solved: Would anybody know anything about downloading Apple ProRes 422 presets into premier, so you can actually use them in a project as a sequence setting? Apple ProRes 422 LT is a more highly compressed codec than Apple ProRes 422, with roughly 70 percent of the data rate and 30 percent smaller file sizes. This codec is perfect for environments where storage capacity and data rate are at a premium. The target data rate is approximately 102 Mbps at 1920x1080 and 29.97 fps.
ProRes is an outstanding family of codecs, even if Adobe Premiere Pro is your principle editing tool. However, Adobe did not create any ProRes presets until the current (2019) version.
Here’s how to create a ProRes setting in both current versions Adobe Media Encoder (AME) and earlier.
NOTE: Here’s an article on how to create a ProRes sequence setting in Adobe Premiere.
WHAT IS PRORES?
“Apple ProRes is a high quality, lossy video compression format developed by Apple Inc. for use in post-production that supports up to 8K. It is the successor of the Apple Intermediate Codec and was introduced in 2007 with Final Cut Studio 2. It is widely used as a final format delivery method for HD broadcast files in commercials, features, Blu-ray and streaming.
“ProRes is a line of intermediate codecs, which means they are intended for use during video editing, and not for practical end-user viewing. The benefit of an intermediate codec is that it retains higher quality than end-user codecs while still requiring much less expensive disk systems compared to uncompressed video. It is comparable to Avid’s DNxHD codec or CineForm which offer similar bitrates and are also intended to be used as intermediate codecs.” (Wikipedia)
All variations of ProRes have a video bit-depth of 10 bits or greater.
NOTE: AME does not ship with the ProRes codecs. The easiest, and cheapest, way to get them is to purchase either Apple Motion or Compressor. Either includes all the ProRes codecs.
FOR OLDER SYSTEMS
Open Adobe Media Encoder and click the plus icon in the top left corner. Then, select Create Encoding Preset.
NOTE: Create Ingest Preset creates import presets for Adobe Premiere Pro CC.
This opens the Preset Settings window.
Give your new preset a name, then, from the Format menu, pick QuickTime.
NOTE: QuickTime is a word with many meanings: it is both a movie format and a “foundation” for a variety of older codecs. The QuickTime 7 Foundation is going away with macOS 10.15 and later. However, the QuickTime movie format is fully supported by Apple and continuing.
After you select QuickTime, the Based on Preset menu changes to include a variety of ProRes settings. (This menu will look different depending upon which version of AME you are running.) Here, I’m selecting ProRes 422. Which version should you pick?
It depends upon the video you initially shot. (Remember, ProRes is designed for editing and master files, not for posting to the web.)
- If your camera shoots ProRes natively, there’s no reason to convert it to a different version of ProRes.
- If you are working with SD or HD media, choose ProRes 422
- If you are working with RAW, HDR or Log files, choose ProRes 4444
- If you are working with files created on the computer, i.e. After Effects or Motion, choose ProRes 4444
- If those After Effects or Motion files contain transparency that you want to retain, choose ProRes 4444 with alpha
NOTE: Converting a lower-quality camera format, such as H.264, to a higher-quality format, such as ProRes 422, does not add more quality. It just means that you won’t lose any quality during the conversion.
The rest of the Basic Video Settings are fine.
As you can see from the settings in the Audio panel, ProRes defaults to fully uncompressed, stereo audio using a 48,000 Hz sample rate and 16-bit depth. You can adjust audio bit-depth up to 32-bit.
NOTE: Audio bit depth controls the gradation of audio volume. 16-bit is fine for recording and distribution. Most audio mixing is done at 32-bit depth.
NOTE: When creating final output, be sure to check Use Maximum Render Quality. This will improve the look of effects in a final output. It is not necessary when transcoding from 8-bit video to ProRes.
I also recommend against Use Previews. Using previews saves time by reusing existing render files. However, I prefer to create all new renders for my final output. Again, for transcoding camera masters this setting does not apply.
When you have adjusted your settings, click OK.
FOR CURRENT SYSTEMS
For current system, Adobe created a new ProRes category containing all six ProRes variations.
You’ll find them in System Presets > Broadcast > Apple ProRes
NOTE: What about Apple ProRes RAW? This is created at the camera during initial recording, NOT in transcoding, because it needs to record the Bayer pattern (pixel locations) directly from the camera sensor. You would NEVER transcode existing media into ProRes RAW because the video is no longer “linked” to the camera sensor.
Here’s an article that explains ProRes RAW further.
OPERATIONS
The new setting now appears in User Presets & Groups. At this point, you can apply it to clips the same as any other compression setting.
NOTE: Here’s a webinar that covers how to use Adobe Media Encoder.
Bookmark the permalink.What the? Adobe Premiere Pro CC 13.0.2 update has added Apple ProRes export support for Windows users. Finally, it looks like the turf war between Apple and Microsoft may be over (or at least there has been a cease-fire). For years Windows Premiere Pro users have struggled with dozens of ways of trying to export Apple ProRes. Delivering material in the ProRes format was a barrier that the professional Windows user faced, well finally that problem has been solved.
Apple has always provided a ProRes decoder for Windows, but there was never any official way to encode ProRes files, except one. The only Windows software Apple has ever licensed (to our knowledge) to create ProRes files is Fusion from Blackmagic Design. The problem that many professionals working on the Windows platform faced is that the ProRes codec can often be read but not recorded. If your client requests that the final material be delivered in ProRes, a problem arises. Before this update, Windows users had to use programs such as AfterCodecs or Blackmagic’s Fusion to export ProRes files. As Fusion was the only licensed product, most of the other companies that were offering ProRes licensing on a PC usually disappeared within a few months of appearing.
Unauthorized codec implementations
In some instances, unauthorized codec implementations have been used in third-party software and hardware products. Apple clearly states that using any unauthorized implementation (such as the FFmpeg and derivative implementations) might lead to decoding errors, performance degradation, incompatibility, and instability. If you’re using or considering the purchase of a product that encodes or decodes ProRes Apple basically warns you to steer clear.

13.02 Update- What’s new?
13.0.2 update for Premiere Pro CC features the following:
- Export support for Apple ProRes on Windows
- Import for HEIF files created on iOS devices
- Improved performance with the Canon Cinema RAW Light on Windows
- Import support for ProRes HDR footage.
The update works with:
- Premiere Pro CC
