Proxy Playback
 
 
 

A proxy is stored for every processed clip, provided proxy management options are enabled and the clip meets any conditional proxy generation criteria (see Setting Proxy Management Options). Because high-resolution images cannot always be played back in real-time, you can set the Player to play back proxies. Image quality is reduced, but real-time playback ensures you get a more accurate playback context.

To enable proxy playback:

  1. Load a high-resolution clip with proxies in the Player.
    TipAlt-click clips on the Desktop or in the clip library to verify whether or not a clip has proxies, and what the proxy resolution is.
  2. From the Play Resolution box, select Proxies.

    NoteIf the Proxies option does not appear in the Play Resolution box, the current clip does not have proxies associated with it.
