If you want to distribute the processing, do QuickTime Reference files, which point to the original digitized media, and use a separate app on the machine to do the transcodes, like Squeeze Pro, or worst case scenario, QuickTime Pro.

If you need to move to another machine, do Same as Source exports to quicktime, which will not be as fast as the QuickTime Reference, but will be moveable to another computer. Then on the other machine you can transcode.

Note, I believe some versions of Sorrenson Squeeze don't support ProRes, but are upgradeable to allow this.

I'm using an older Media Composer to capture 1:1 lossless NTSC for archival purposes. For this project the preservation format or digital master will be ProRes. I'd like to be able to distribute the processing ie. not tie up the Avid for transcoding but keep it free to do capture. Is there a way to skip the "export to Qt" step and work directly with the mxf "capture" files? (1 video & 2 audio in Premiere for example?)
