Managing Proxies
Proxies are low-resolution copies of high-resolution
images, one for each frame. Proxies are used to provide:
- Real-time
playback of processed results (where the full-resolution clips are
too big to play back in real time).
- Low-resolution stand-in clips in a compositing
environment (Action or Batch) so you can create composites more quickly.
- A fast render preview in some modules, such
as Action, and for soft effects and transitions in soft clips
on the EditDesk.
- A fast
work environment for a project when using proxies without the original
media. You can capture proxies only or remove media from clip metadata
while retaining proxies. The original media is recaptured and relinked
to the clip metadata prior to output.
Proxies can be regenerated at any time, and
you can even extract proxies from a clip. Extracting proxies is
a quick way to deliver a review version of a high-resolution clip.
