Hi!

I'm also looking for a good proxy workflow. Native or not, I want to edit 5D2 footage in Multicam (4 cameras) and it's simply not keeping up in a fluid way. It's *really* laggy. So, I started looking at proxy workflows and .....
I have two folders, one called "Source Media" and the other called "Proxy Media". What I was hoping to do was tell PP that all the footage was offline, then tell it to link the media to the proxy folder. So, it asks me where the first file is located and it connects to the proxy media fine, but then it links all the remaining footage back to the source media folder instead of following the path I get it for the first file.
For a few files I could do it all manually, but there are 715 files in this project....
The only way I've come up with so far is to take all the media offline, RENAME the folders so that the proxy becomes the Source Media folder then bring them all back online again.
Is there a better way of doing this? Is there a way to have the offline media all connect to the proxy folder instead of going back to the source folder (without having to rename the folders!!!!!)?
I have the exactly same problem! I tried everything I could and there's no solution found. Why Premiere is SO STUPID??? How to link ALL files to their copies in OTHER FOLDER?
