Hi,


And how do I know they will be ab= le to read the ProRes 4444 files created by AfterCodecs?


I mean this is one small project = from a single client, so $88 for a single delivery is a bit harsh, as I don= 't expect any more uses for it.


(I don't usually do work that= is for a delivery format as I tend to complete all projects myself)


Basically it's because it'= ;s not for animation is for film for once.


If I knew for sure there would be= no issues with the AfterCodecs on their side on delivery back, I would be = tempted for sure to still buy it.


Thanks,


Anders

Just give them ProRes 4444 back, with AfterCodecs.=C2=A0

I've been a huge fan of it and use it daily. Probably= the most value I've ever gotten out of a 3rd party purchase.=C2=A0

Hi,


I work entirely on PC.


If I received QuickTime ProRes 44= 44 mov files, since Adobe Media Encoder does not export to ProRes 4444 at l= east not in Windows/PC, what is a format of equal quality and smaller that = uncompressed, that (any) Mac person/editor would be able to accept as a delivery format?


I tried for example GoPro CineFor= m but doesn't open in QuickTime on their Mac.


I asked them what they can accept= but in the meantime, if you are a Mac editor what would be acceptable?


(uncompressed MOV QuickTime are h= uge so not good)


Cheers


Anders
