Hi David
Adding a video file to the timelines will activate Smart Proxy and files will be created
Using MCE opening a project appears to be the same as adding a file to the timelines
I ran a test using two video files, MCE started creating the proxy file for clip 1
Closing MCE, proxy files continue to be created in the background for clip 1 only, VS still running.
However if I closed MCE at 50% and closed VS, proxy creation appears to be terminated.
Opened VS opened MCE VSP
Clip 2 was now crating the proxy, when complete clip 1 resumed from 50% to completion.
The above is a little different using the main timelines as any files not started to create proxies will not be created, we would right click for create smart proxy or add the clip to the timeline again.
Files being created when VS is closed seem to be created in the background, no indication of this.
Viewing the proxy folder will show the proxy file as a smaller version.
Reboot VS and the video clip shows the proxy icon, Viewing the proxy folder now shows the file as full size.
There was no time to finish this creation, the file was updated I assume from some cache file?
Confusing.
Sharing projects, just provide a VSP, re-link and all clips including all MCE cuts will show, video clips will smart proxy
You only have to share the vsp.

Re: Multi-Camera editing technique
Hi Trevor,
My 1st try at a sequenced result from 3 cameras for take 1 is here: - 3 cameras files only
- sync'd on a clapper board at the start of each clip using select area mode and constraining the area to the first 30 seconds of each clip: then switch to waveform display and you'll see how that clapper spike lines up in each clip.
- audio source was the default (camera 1).
- just the MCE output, saved as a vsp when it got the library/timeline, no other editing as yet.
After the trials of the 1st week when all I got - it seems - was problems, this was deliberately as simple as it gets. I'll try variations with external sound later. Critique?
For other reader info, this was a class project: an interview lasting a bit less than 20 minutes and the student task was to create a usable end-video of about 5-8 minutes duration showing skills with multi-cam editing and some creative juices in editing (my first post way back on page 1). Which incidentally includes me as the tutor - even tho the project is a class effort, I participate. The source files just for take 1 (there were 2) total a bit over 9gb and are on a google drive. This caught Trevors' interest and we have messaged off-line about various issues, and he's already helped everyone enormously.
