Proxy system¶

To optimize video files playback performance, sequencer uses proxy system which is available in movie clip editor too. Proxies are re-encoded video files with settings to get good scrubbing performance and they can have smaller resolution. Since proxy transcoding is standalone system, its inner workings won't be described in detail here, but rather its integration with sequencer. Same proxy system is used in movie clip editor.

TODO:

• Image strips
• Generating editor side, sequencer side
• How proxies are used
