Multiple subclips don't work correctly for proxies

PostFri Jun 04, 2021 11:57 am

If you have defined subclips, you expect them to be possible sources of proxies, right?
After all, the manual says: "Once created, subclips appear and work like any other clip in DaVinci Resolve."

Unfortunately not! If you define more than one subclip from the same, longer original, a proxy is only generated for the last sub clip, not all of them. This happens if you mark several subclips. If you activate them one by one, the command works. But who wants to do this one by one for dozens of subclips?
My disaster protection: export a .drp file to a physically separated storage regularly.

Honestly, no.

1. Import
2. Proxies
3. Subclips

My thinking, anyway.

I second Uli with the logic. I would be very happy to see this fixed soon!

@Jim your thinking doesn't exclude what Uli is proposing. Also, as we discovered (in this thread: viewtopic.php?f=21&t=136848), already generated proxies don't work as expected for subclips.
