Proxy workflow - interpret footage

Explorer ,
Jan 24, 2023 Jan 24, 2023
Please make the "interpret footage" feature pass down from hi-res native footage to attached proxies. For example, if native camera footage is interpreted from 60fps down to 23.976fps, then the 60fps Premiere-generated proxies should be interpreted that way as well.

Hi all,

There are two parts to this request:

1. Ensuring that proxies are created respecting changes that have already been applied to media via Interpret Footage.

2. Ensuring that changes in Interpret Footage are applied to proxies that have already been created.

The first part was done and is in v23 or later of Premiere Pro and Media Encoder. The second part is being worked on but I don't have a release data to share at this time.

Regards,

Fergus

Hi all,

This issue will be fixed in the next version of Premiere Pro: whatever frame rate entered in Interpret Footage will be used by Media Encoder to create proxies.

Regards,

Fergus

I'm also voting for this. It is very important.
Right now it's impossible to edit with proxies.

A workaround is to stop the ingestion process on media encoder and interpret all footage to desired framerate.

For projects with a lot of overcranked footage (not at all uncommon) this makes proxies functionally useless.

Looks like folks noticed this over two years ago. Pretty please? Sure seems like it would be trivial to just apply the same "interpretation" to the proxy that is applied to the original. This logic works for other things - like FX, which work whether applied to original or proxy (although I can appreciate that the interpretation probably happens deeper down).

Espeically given that you can manually fix this - by stopping the AME queue and then interpretting the footage there, surely Premiere could be told to do this, i.e. pass on the interpret setting to AME. Doesn't seem that difficult. I presume the devs ran into some other unforeseen problem that they haven't been able to fix

We really need this. It's not a proxy if it has a totally different framerate than the original footage. Thank you!

This is currently the only thing in premiere that makes you think you are not dealing with a professional software.

This seems like such an easy fix I don't even know why its taken so long. Here's the current solution that shows just how dumb this is: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0evKZXohM7o

I support this feature request! Please add this as soon as possible.

Thanks to this youtube tutorial I am able to use a workaround:

how is this still being ignored? The workaround on YouTube didn't work for me and this really should be something Adobe fixes.. now I have to transcode all my footage from 60 to 23.976 just to use proxies which results in an extra Terabyte of storage needed. This is absolutely ridiculous..

Would love for this to also be implemented into the feature where you link the footage to proxies already completed.

Adobe this is absolutely unacceptable that is even an issue! We have to use Proxies for the 4K-8K workflows (even on some of the faster machines) and this is causing a MAJOR issue with offline to online.

Until Interpret Footage support can be implemented for Proxy, a possible workaround is to use Speed/Duration, which is supported for Proxy.

@TrentHappel Using Speed Duration may result, except if you want to Warp Stabilize. You need to nest the sequence above that... lots of steps for an apparently simple feature. So not really an option for most of users. It is also possible to workaround intepreting the footage at the time of transcoding, but this feature should be enabled in the proxy workflow without workarounds.

This absolutely has to be implemented! Otherwise the proxy-workflow on large projects with multiple cameras is simply not viable. When I stumbled across this I couldn't even believe that this is a known bug!
