So in essence Avid's internal code is able to create/transcode the DNX etc... to ProRes but this is separate from the QT codecs or helper files that allow QTPro 7 to export to ProRes from another codec. I'm not at my system now, but it already has FCP 7 so it's not indicative of what my friend has available, after mixing down to prores to export a prores .mov you'd have to choose same as source. Does that mean there would be no option in the custom export that says ProRes as a codec choice? I would think that the ability to choose prores as a mixdown codec would also mean that it's available as a choice for a QT export but I never use that workflow so what I'm hearing is that even though you can mixdown transcode to it you can't choose it as a custom export you have to trick the system by saying same as source.
If this is all correct I would think my friend could do that on his mac 6.5.x or 7.x system. I'll pass that along.

I did a little googling and it seems that the only way to be able to export ProRes from Avid is to have some form of FCP installed.
