The end of QuickTime PhotoJPEG??
StockStudio:
In the new Adobe CC, they announced that support of legacy QuickTime codecs will be discontinued in the upcoming version.
"Support for import/export of legacy 32-bit QuickTime media will be discontinued in a future version of Premiere Pro. Transcode to a non-legacy format to continue using the media in Premiere Pro after legacy support has ended."
now, the most common codec in all agencies is the very old QuickTime PhotoJPEG.
We need a new codec that will be accepted across the board, since encoding to different codec for each site will be very time consuming...
Can someone map the codecs accepted in each agancy today?

Finally, no more PJPEG!
ProRes is what you're looking for.

If I could encode ProRes on my PC - I would do it a long time ago...

PhotoJPEG, nuke it from orbit!
There are several ProRes encoders for Windows, but I haven't tried them. Apple should make it available for Windows. Or Adobe should make an open codec, like they did with DNG for RAW photos.
RAW:
Unfortunately, if you are uploading video to Getty many of the PC ProRes encoders cause problems with their ESP system. Especially if you are uploading large files. I found it easier just to buy a used mac on ebay and use that for encoding.
ProRes has it's limitations. It will not go past 8K and we are already selling a few 6K videos. We need the next generation of video codecs for the PC as soon as possible.
So let the codec wars begin.
