Correct answer shachar carmi

you must have accidentally set "use as proxy" in the render settings.

next to your comp or footage in the project window there's a little red

square. clicking it toggles the proxy on and off.

you can also remove the proxy altogether from the interperate footage

window. (if i recall correctly)

To remove the Proxy, you can select the Proxy object in the Project Panel, and then go to "File > Set Proxy..." and choose "None".

How do you know what is the Proxy object? I can't find it anywhere and I can't do anything until I get this turned off.
