[@RustedFaith]

For automatic attachments... Make filenames identical (in Proxy folder) and add "_Proxy" suffix to each filename, For example : scene1.mp4 and scene1_Proxy.mp4 (this file should be in proxy folder).

[@theTechNotice]

Thanks for that! 👌

[@user-wz7nq9pf5y]

Another hack👍: You can also use Bulk rename Software to rename multiple files

[@DayMixer]

Adobe Bridge has it :D

[@armankizir2185]

How do you do this in bulk/one go?

[@rae2-j]

@@armankizir2185 on windows, open notepad, insert this line "for %%i in (%*) do (ren %%i ?????_Proxy.mp4)" (when you use the default naming of the A7sIII, otherwise you need to add some ? to the name, so there are only the last 3 characters left out) and save it as eg. renameproxyfiles.bat, then drag the proxy files onto the bat file and it will rename them all in one go. no need for external software.

[@chrishilleke5886]

To enable bulk attachment inside the "Attach Proxies" dialog box in Premiere Pro UNCHECK "File Name" and INSTEAD CHECK "Media Start" under the "Match File Properties" section which is located at the bottom left corner of the window. This way, even if you need to attach a large number of files you can avoid the one-at-a-time headache:)

[@adriangolinski8374]

Daaamn! :) Thanks bro

[@blackoutapp]

Awesome video. Thanks for this tutorial!

[@user-xs8cf7ze3q]

You need to rename the proxy in total Commander as the original files and Proxy replacement in Adobe Premiere works from the first file (specify the folder where the proxy is) then with one click Toggle Proxies switches from the proxy and back to the originals;)

[@btlcreativemedia3038]

Perfectly explained! Thank you. Subscribed 😎👌

[@TheOriginalRonaldo]

Omg thanks a million for this !! This is gold !!!

[@Guttz_ShoTit]

Soooo you showed 24fps …. What if I shot in 120fps …. Will I get proxies in 120fps???…. Or does this only work when shooting in 24fps

[@eliasdenny529]

Gonna test doing this out. I wonder how much this will effect how much recording time using a cf express w/ 160 gb . Use alot of 120 p footage for indie music videos🤔

[@videobytrkx]

Why are the H.265 is hardware accelareted, where did you get the info from? Or what are you mean by that? at 1:55

[@domantasbronusas]

What I like about proxies is that you can even send the video you filmed with your fancy cam to facebook lol

[@theTechNotice]

Haha

[@user-kv4wz8lr6q]

Hey Tech Notice, I have a question for you. I'm working with proxies and I don't have the original file, only the proxies are given to me. The proxies I'm using were created directly from my boss' Sony Camera. When I have the project file, I simply attach the provided proxies. Once attached, the 2160 x 3840 proxies are compressed, but the 3840 x 2160 ones are fine. What could be wrong with the 2160 x 3840 proxies and why are they compressed in Premiere Pro, but they're fine when opened in VLC player?

[@rae2-j]

a true life saver here!

[@Shanegmahon2]

If you're using a Mac just select all the proxies, right click "rename", and replace "S03" with "_Proxy". Then Premiere will automatically find them when linking proxies.

[@theTechNotice]

Great tip! 👍

[@videobytrkx]

To record 120 frames per second or higher I think it will be work with the CF type express cards Type a from Sony. But they are expensive.

[@magica_film_company]

saved my life!!

[@jakeleuzzi4983]

can you record 120p footage though?

[@videobytrkx]

And why are you saying that the XAVC S creates smaller file sizes? Typicly the H.265 has smaler file sizes. at 2:20

[@eastcoastsailingcenter7768]

Does it work with S&Q?

[@denisj32]

nice

[@lllCo2lll]

In the a7sii you lose face detection autofocus when you do proxy do you lose that in the a7s3 or anything?

[@theTechNotice]

nope :) as far as i know :)

[@TheSteveKinney]

bro. DaVinci resolve. need to make a version for that too.

[@christianmartin3456]

maybe it's because the proxies file names doesn't exactly match the raw clip file names so premiere doesn't link those automatically

[@theTechNotice]

Yeah, could be...🤔

[@lipwood_music]

rename the S03 after the filename to _proxy

[@dandobi]

i'm sorry, how is this a hack? this is litterally a feature...

[@jeevankannadasan4952]

Please upload a video Nvidia Quadro cards vs Nvidia Gaming Crads performence in Productivity

[@alexkooistra]

Thats a basic feature, not a hack. Do any basic editing and you should know about this feature.

[@Aziz_Cinematographer]

You are not be an editor, if you don’t know those kind of things
