Q&A
Q: After Effects ProRes RAW could not be decoded.
A: For ProRes RAW to import properly in After Effects, please ensure that you have installed the latest NVIDIA driver for your GPU and the Renderer is set to Mercury Playback Engine GPU Acceleration. Also, please ensure that you have Apple ProRes RAW for Windows 1.1 installed. If you don’t like this solution, you can use third-party software to convert the ProRes video into a format supported by the After Effects.
I was lucky that I got a Fujifilm GFX 100 II, it is one of the most popular and hotly-received professional camcorder, which can help us record vivid images and great family videos. Then I googled to find the ProRes MOV is not recognized by After Effects. So I started looking for an easy way to bridge between my ProRes and After Effects for converting Fujifilm GFX 100 II ProRes to After Effects native editing format on Windows 10. Please recommend a cost-effective software to me.

ProRes and After Effects
Apple ProRes is a high quality, “visually lossless” lossy video compression format developed by Apple Inc. for use in post-production that supports video resolution up to 8K. ProRes is a line of intermediate codecs, which means they are intended for use during video editing, and not for practical end-user viewing. After Effects used in the post-production process of film making, video games and television production. Among other things, After Effects can be used for keying, tracking, compositing, and animation. It also functions as a very basic non-linear editor, audio editor, and media transcoder.
As it exists as a "container" or "wrapper" format instead of compressed format, it doesn’t guarantee that each of MOV file can be identified by any kind of decoder. For customers who use iPhone, Blackmagic Design, Canon, DJI and Fujifilm cameras, it must be a very tough task to find a perfect solution to import footage to After Effects for editing.
