Apple ProRes is one of the most popular video formats in professional video production and post-production. ProRes is a codec technology developed by Apple for high-quality, high-performance editing in Final Cut Pro X.
Apple also licenses and certifies ProRes for specific third-party products and workflows. These products include software, cameras, and other hardware devices. To learn more about Apple ProRes, view the Apple ProRes White Paper (PDF). For information on Apple ProRes licensing, development, and product certification, contact the Apple ProRes Program Office at ProRes@apple.com.
Unauthorized codec implementations
In some instances, unauthorized codec implementations have been used in third-party software and hardware products. 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 but isn't on the list below, please contact us at ProRes@apple.com.
