  • ProRes444 w/Alpha fine on one machine, missing proxy on another.

    I have a little glitch maybe you guys know how to fix?
    I’ve got some animations I’ve done in AE that I exported ProRes444 with alpha channel. On my desktop (one of the new Mac Pros) the file overlays fine.
    On my laptop they show up red with a “Missing Proxy!” warning. I can’t proxy them because I’ll lose my alpha.

    Both machines are running version 10.1.3 of FCPX.
    Any clues as to why the files would be fine on one machine, but not on the other?

    Switch off proxy mode from the machine with the missing proxy….

    Thanks guys. I’ll try turning off proxies all together, and compare the quicktime versions. For now I was able to get my export done on the Mac Pro.
