Well, there's only so much we can do, not knowing exactly how Quicktime 7 Pro determines what to display. I neither have their sources, nor the actual program to experiment. There's probably some way to check whether ffmpeg is doing what is it saying, e.g. by using AtomicParsley to check the MOV atoms. I have a different idea though: Assuming ffmpeg does the right thing (as in the doc you quoted), or that it's not relevant, could it rather be that: > Output #0, mov, to 'out.mov': > Metadata: > major_brand : qt > minor_version : 537199360 > compatible_brands: qt > encoder : Lavf56.33.101 > Stream #0:0(eng), 0, 1/11988: Video: prores (prores_ks) (apch / > 0x68637061), yuv422p10le, 1920x1080 [SAR 1:1 DAR 16:9], q=2-31, 200 kb/s, > 23.98 fps, 11988 tbn, 23.98 tbc (default) > Metadata: > creation_time : 2015-05-22 11:00:20 > handler_name : Apple Alias Data Handler > timecode : 00:57:50:00 > encoder : Lavc56.39.101 prores_ks Quicktime 7 Pro may be displaying the "encoder" metadata field of the stream? That's exactly what you seem to be seeing, and that's where your input file has the "Apple ProRes 422 HQ" you desire. If so, you can modify the stream metadata (or "kick" the default) by adding this to your conversion: -metadata:s encoder="Apple ProRes 422 HQ" "Works for me(TM)" Why do you want to lie, anyway? ;-) Good luck, Moritz _______________________________________________ ffmpeg-user mailing list [email protected] http://ffmpeg.org/mailman/listinfo/ffmpeg-user
