So, we've finally had to move up to CC2020 (14.0.4), and proxy ingest names have been changed. You no longer have dimensions visible right there in the dialog box, but instead you're given options of Low, Medium, and High resolution.

Initially I thought that Adobe had finally implemented a change we've been asking for, where proxies are based off of the source media dimensions (say half res, third, quarter, etc), but no. It appears as though they're still sticking to specific dimensions (1280x720, 1024x540, etc), but they've just gotten rid of a quick and easy way to spot this by having the dimension in the preset.

Why? What is the point of making things less clear? Are we moving towards proxy sizes based off of source media, or...? If not, then can we just go back to the way it was before where it was clear what you were creating?

I have many quicktime files from GettyImages that are encoded in XDCam EX format 1440x1080 23.98fps. these no longer import and say that the format is unsupported on the latest versions of premiere/media encoder on either MacOS or Windows 10. it was suggested to me to encode using Handbrake but i am already transcoding to ProRes so don't want a third party making another file. These files all worked a number of versions back as i used them in another project but now they don't work or import! why has adobe drop the support for these files.

A way of setting the edit timebase to a figure that is different to the fps. For example when we edit in 50p there are 50 frames per second. When this is converted to a 25i clip for broadcast each frame effectively becomes a field of the interlaced clip. Broadcast regulations stipulate that all cuts must be on the upper or odd field, which means that all edits need to be on even frames. Avid allow a way of ensuring this by creating a 50P project but setting the timebase to 25p ensuring cuts can only occur every second frame, meaning that when converted to interlaced it will conform with broadcast requirements.

This is an addition to my previous post. So far i've had fairly decent results color correcting and editing H265 10-bit files from my Lumix S1H. However, certain effects, such as Posterize Time, Neat Video and other temporal effects cause the image to not only have a magenta color shift, but also cause color blotching / artifacting that are not actually there. A color shift would have been one thing that could have easily been fixed with another color correction layer. But blotching / artifacts can't be removed and thus require me to first render my clip to ProRes, before I can add these effects. Full H265 10-bit support needs to be addressed with this system, soon.
