Hi there, I am currently wokring on a long form documentary, the project was handed over to use from another company and they have been using the Productions workflow which has some obvious benefits, however how do I know if the proxies are working or not in this production workflow? It dosn't seem like they are and I can't find any info on this, it's quite urgent as it's a 2 hour long film with lot's 4K Prores 4444XQ footage, there is a proxie folder on th edrive but I just can't fiqure this out with this new production workflow..

Thanks so much

Marcel

Does the proxy icon toggle show a difference between states, going both blue and gray?

In the project panel for the main media, does the metadata colum for attached proxies show them as attached?

Hi Neil,

Thanks for the reply, I will send more detailed information and screen grabs but for now after doing some digging it seems like the whole project is using the lower res, Prores 442Lt versions of the footage and there are no proxies or high res media attached. The proxy folder is on the drive and has the has the same Prores 442Lt versions in it. The high res Prores 4444xq versions are all on the drive as well but don't seem to be attached or used at all. How would I create a version with all the high res footage with proxies attached?

I take it the names are all correctly identical except for the format suffix ... so ...

Unlink (offlline) the 'main' files as Premiere sees them now.

"Locate" the now missing media by going to the full-size files.

Then link proxies to the proxy files.
