Grrrrrr...

Google serves up that ridiculous piece of software for just about any transcoding question. 

Brorosoft has vomitted this sort of manufactured content everywhere to exploit SEO. 

Heaven forbid one actually tries to locate legitimate advice about video transcoding through a search engine --as wading through the algorithmic garbage dump of information is barely useful. 

But then again, Monica660, you already knew that, didn't'cha?

That's why you're here.

I came across this discussion searching for an alternative to render prores from premiere pro, however, it seems impossible from PP, but, you can render any prores with another platform called Cruncher https://getcruncher.com it's a stand-alone app and seems to be well built.

What you describe, only works under Mac OS X (and is unnecessarily complex for that operating system).

Under Windows, there is no encoding support for ProRes in Premiere. ProRes also does not turn up in the Preview File Format options for Quicktime that you mention in your Step 5:

Everyone would be better off in the future if they just use Cineform. When someone asks for Prores delivery, tell them that Cineform is better. If they insist tell them that they should be paying extra for the mac ecosystem, because at the end of the day it is costing you more money. 

Now it is open source.

I am a mac user, but please stop using proprietary codecs. Especially the ones that don't work across platforms by design like Prores.

Cineform is more efficient as well

Don, I am very interested in using CineForm. I agree about not using proprietary stuff (this is why I won't really ever go with FCPX).

I followed the links you shared and read them, but I am not tech savvy enough to do whatever that second link was describing. I have Adobe Cloud. Is there a simple way for me to get and use CineForm on a Mac?

EDIT: Never mind Don, I figured it out. For those also interested, look for "GoPro CineForm" in the drop down menu and not just CineForm. Here's a link from Adobe on the matter.
