Apple clearly states that using any unauthorized implementation (such as the FFmpeg and derivative implementations) might lead to decoding errors, performance degradation, incompatibility, and instability. In some instances, unauthorized codec implementations have been used in third-party software and hardware products. As Fusion was the only licensed product, most of the other companies that were offering ProRes licensing on a PC usually disappeared within a few months of appearing. Before this update, Windows users had to use programs such as AfterCodecs or Blackmagic’s Fusion to export ProRes files.
If your client requests that the final material be delivered in ProRes, a problem arises. The only Windows software Apple has ever licensed (to our knowledge) to create ProRes files is Fusion from Blackmagic Design. The problem that many professionals working on the Windows platform faced is that the ProRes codec can often be read but not recorded. Apple has always provided a ProRes decoder for Windows, but there was never any official way to encode ProRes files, except one.
