Any way of amending _Proxy preset to add BITC?

[Trevor_Asq]

Is there a way of amending the _proxy presets within Premiere Pro, for example to make them truly 16x9 or to add a timecode burn-in?

Thanks

Two of the three presets in each group are 16x9.  (The third is 1.89 to match Cinema4K media).

But yes, you can create your own presets.

Thanks Jim, where are the proxy presets stored so  appear in the ingest window drop down?

You create your own preset using AME, then select it for Proxy work.

OK, have to create (in AME) an encoding preset (setting codec / size / burn ins etc) and then (also in AME) an ingest preset pointing at that encoding preset.
Then export the ingest preset and import in the ingest settings (in PPro).

The PPro custom proxy ingest settings are stored (on a mac) in ~/Documents/Adobe/Premiere Pro/11.0/Profile-user_name_here/Settings/Ingest Presets

There are only certain codecs that will accomodate making proxies for multichannel audio source material (ProRes Proxy seems to work OK).
