Well, since I seem not to have any other option… why not.

I mean, CS5.5 is much smoother on my computer than CS3 with everything but PREMIERE.

So, I’m looking for a convenient workflow to have… preview low res footage than I could edit / apply effect. Then I want to be able to swap to full resolution when rendering.

Exactly like proxy in after effect.

Any idea?

So I have improved my workflow by creating a seqeunce with all my rush.
Then I reduce by half the “preview settings” of this sequence
Then I render all work area
As a result a lower quality of all my footage are saved in the scrape disk. So I can go smoothy throught my sequence.

PROBLEM…
As soon as I edit my sequence, the preview file is not used anymore and playback is not smooth!

Is there is a way to use placeholder / proxy (low resolution footage) like in After effect?

Same specs for me (gx700 msi)

Did you manage to make the playback smoother even without Mercury working?

Any help / advices are welcome!
