Bad fit after replacing proxy files with originals?
Hi all,
I am new to proxy editing. I just completing an edit (of a short project, luckily) using proxies. I successfully got Premiere to re-link to the original files, but I’m having a problem where the fit in the program window is very bad—it’s as though I was viewing at like 400%. I’ve tried changing the fit from “fit” to the various percentages, but this simply changes the size of the clip within the program window; it still appears “zoomed in.” I’ve also tried “fit to frame size” and “set to frame size,” but neither of these has any effect.
Seeing as when I was editing with the proxies I used the “set to frame size” command, it seems like thr program window got set on only seeing a particular number of pixels or something. The only way I have seen to get around this is to go around “matching frames” and manually dragging the files back from the bin and into the project. For this project, that isn’t too bad, but on larger projects in the future I want to know how to avoid this.
I know there are a lot of threads about similar things, but I haven’t been able to find this specific issue. Thanks.

What size were the proxies and what size are the originals? You’ll need to change the sequence resolution to match the originals.

The originals are 4k and the proxies are a scaled down version of 4k. The sequence was a 4k sequence, but I had made the proxies fit by right clicking and selecting “set to frame size.” But as I said, after re-linking the footage, this is solved by simply “matching frame,” dragging the 4k files out of the bin and replacing the clips on the timeline with them (essentially replacing clips with exactly the same clips it seems).
