Yes, encoding to prores without indexing is probably fine(at least in the tests I did) and it is faster, indeed but I still prefer indexing for peace of mind.I made a patch to ENCODERS_PRORES_GUI.bat in DoVi_Scripts to use DGIndexNV instead of FFMS2 when an NVIDIA GPU is detected and saw accurate results, but then I wondered if indexing is really needed if no other transforms are needed on the video.
In the non-gui version of dovi_scripts(latest beta only), you can disable indexing for the prores encoding workflow 8-2-3
line 251
::choose if you want to index your input before the prores encoding in 3-1 and 8-2-3 default=NO
set disable_indexing=NO
