Why does my proxy video appear upside down in the program panel?
Hi,
I have recorded video from two sources, one source from iPhone 4 (720p) and another from Samsung galaxy note 8 (4k).
I have chosen a common proxy dimension of 1280 x 720 which meets the needs of both sources with an aspect ratio of 1.78
I am using Quicktime GoPro Cineform as my basis to customise the transcode then all I change is the video dimensions.
When I ingest the videos, the proxy videos get created accordingly and having checked them they all play and look good.
The problem is when I place ANY imported video onto a sequence timeline and toggle the proxy to ON my proxy video is upside down??
Why is this video appearing upside down? I have checked all source videos and they are all the right way up, it's just when displayed on the program panel in the editing workspace that the video appears inverted. The video even looks the right way up on the timeline when viewed with continuous thumbnails. On top of this media encoder is sooooo buggy crashing after every three or four transcodes, but thats another issue.
I have found a workaround I think by applying a horizontal and vertical flip effect to the proxy video but all this does is flip the full res video so I am constantly toggling the flip effects on and off depending on the view. Also this is performing unnecessary processing and the goal of using proxies is to reduce the editing demand on the system.
So if anyone knows the solution for this please post asap because I am at a stand still with what seems such a trivial problem atm.
