I have a similar workflow, create/ render to 16bit .png sequence project on a windows machine. import .png folder to after effects on a Mac mini, (both machines on a gig Ethernet network) output to prores4444.

Teddy,

Thanks.  So what is the workflow then for this?  So, I get a mini mac (not sure what that is but will research) and then I presume you copy all your files to a USB drive from PC, plug in to mini mac and then?  What are you using then for the conversion on the Mac?

Thanks,
Eric

I skip prores exports from PC altogether because of those issues, and either send DNxHD QTs direct or encode Prores from lossless files on my mac mini / MBP. I'd highly recommend a used recent mac mini as a standalone encoding device / server, it works great and speeds up workflow

Hello,

I've been using this thing now for a year or so with sort of mixed reviews.  I sometimes get perfect conversions and then other times, it will add a white frame at the end or just slap on a random 5 frames or so of black.  Has anyone had this problem?

Is there an application out there that people have had better luck with?

Thanks,
Eric
