Batch IMPORTING proxies

[blakerblaker211]

Hello everyone

I was on set editor for a commercial this past weekend and there was a lot footage and importing just Medium proxy files was a long and painful process so I was wondering if there was a quicker workflow to just grabbing the medium proxies from the original R3d folder.

in finder type _m in the search window. Make sure the correct folder is selected and all _m proxies will show up. I usually sort by name and drag into fcp. It's pretty quick. Good luck.

It is best way . But if you are on XSAN , and your system is Leopard it will not work I have problems with it.

If you're on Leopard, Clipfinder will let you drag and drop proxies of a selected type into FCP.

Now that is what I am talking about

Will it grab whichever RES the clipfinder is set to at the time

In Clipfinder you select the res you want and it will global change automatically, grab all those clips and drag them to FCP.
