You mean the GPL version of the ProRes decoder. There's an LGPL version as well:
prores_gpl
prores_lgpl
The output from each is nearly identical. You can force decoding with
one or the other by specifying the decoder before the input file:
ffmpeg -vcodec prores_lgpl -i myclip.mov
Forgive me, but I have to ask. Why are there two versions of the same
decoder, each with a different license? Is one faster than the other?
