Okay, I will hop on this train to see if someone can help me with my workflow. Unfortunately, my would-be adequate SLI setup isn’t up to snuff for GPU accelerated multicam editing because neither card has 1GB memory independently. So, I created very low-res proxy files for my 9 HD shots and I was able to make my edits with perfect fluidity in a low-res multicam sequence.

That’s when things break down for me. My misstep was in thinking that I could then replace the proxy footage with the HD footage, increase the resolution of the sequence, and render it out. So, the question is, is there any workable way to use these sorts of proxies for multicam editing? If I make my destination sequence 1920×1080 to start with, the low res proxy files are too small to watch in the multicam monitor (even maximized) to make any sound judgments. I also tried replacing the footage and copying the contents of my low res sequence into a HD one, but the result only copies one camera angle and only shows the piece of the footage that would be visible in the small resolution window.

Any help is much appreciated.
