With todays 19.1.4 release of Resolve it now has licensed full native ProRes support.

This means no more using ffmpeg/voukoder based workarounds and comes at a good time since Voukoder is going payware.

Im assuming is Resolve Studio only not free but unsure.

Great news!
This means that I don't need Adobe Encoder anymore, and I will be fine with PS+LR only, instead of the all apps package (in case I don't get it from Adobe anymore).

Just checked on about 10 x 20 second ish stock videos and seems fine, full range of codecs available, render time a few seconds.
Can also use ProRes proxy if you want (although it still refusing Cineform is annoying).

Ive been using Voukoder for years which is free but just a slightly clunky workflow if you want to change a setting. No longer a need now.

Finally . Very happy about this news. I have lately provided many files as DNxHR HQX 10 bits but I prefer PRORES. Files are usually smaller and when I make drone clips that are longer and usually pass the size limit of Adobe.
