Wanted to have a quick look but I think something is wrong. I updated Premiere/Media Encoder. 24.4.0b30

1. I don't see the new menu with "Choose a file..."

2. After proxy creation the file got attached to the clip in the project but it's not showing up on the clip as icon or is visible in the program monitor somehow despite saying it is present in the info panel.

3. I notice that the original file has the embedded LUT enabled which the proxy created from it doesn't. Ideally it would honor this setting or at least give an option to include or exclude to the user.

Thank you for sharing your concerns with us. Lets tackle each one:

Missing “Choose a file...” Menu: This feature became available starting with the 24.4x31 build as part of the public beta. Please ensure your app is updated to this build or a later version to access this feature.
Proxy icon not visible: It sounds like you’ve encountered a refresh glitch that’s already known. It works eventually, else try relaunching Premiere.
LUT Not Applied to Proxy: Could you provide more details about your expected workflow? In the current implementation, the LUT is not permanently baked to the proxy. Instead, it’s applied to both the original clip and its proxy when you import the clip, then go to Modify > Color to add a LUT, and create a proxy.

Hey Nishi! Thanks for the reply. I was, and still am on holidays! I will have a look again next week when I'll be back at the office and update here.
