ProRes dataclass

Bases: FFMpegEncoder

Uses ffmpeg's prores-ks encoder to encode a clip to a ProRes stream.

Documentation for params and additional options can be viewed at: https://ffmpeg.org/ffmpeg-codecs.html#Private-Options-for-prores_002dks

Parameters:

Name Type Description Default
profile

The encoder profile. Basically Quality settings. Chooses the Standard/Default profile for 422 and the '4444' profile for 444 clips if None.
