Hello everyone,
I'm looking for how to produce an Prores file with 4:4:4, 4:2:2, 4:2:0 color parameters.
I don't really understand where to look for having the knowledge to write the encoder parameters to do that.
I've looked at the ffmpeg documentation, and all i see is, for example :
'profile 4444'
can :
'profile 4200' can work ?
Thanks all.

The current OBS ffmpeg prores implementation is not great, look at @Xaymar his prores presets in his FFmpeg Encoders plugin.

Although I'm not sure about the existence of prores 420, 422 and 444 are possible and 4444 is for transparancy/alphachannel videos.
