XDCAM Workflow Guide
Caching of Proxies
XDCAM clips that are opened prior to import must have their proxies cached (SD only if “use proxy media” is checked). This is done automatically or
manually.
Proxies are cached to the
shared directory. This means that proxy media imported on one Aurora Edit system will be available for editors in other edit
bays when that same disk is inserted in those bays. This greatly reduces the time spent on importing proxies.
Once cached, the clip will display a yellow pie shaped icon in the thumbnail view, and the word “cached” will be displayed in the status column of the
details view.
View as Tape
With XDCAM proxies now being used, View as Tape is an available option for this Removable Media type.
View as Tape takes all of the available clips on an XDCAM or XDCAM HD disc and combines them to form one virtual clip. This combines the benefits
of removable media (thumbnails for individual clips, easy access to individual clips, etc.) with the benefits of editing from tape (being able to freely and
quickly scrub/shuttle through an entire piece in order to prepare for editing).
