Using Proxies With Eddie AI

To import smaller files into Eddie or if there's an unsupported format that you want to circumvent, create proxies. Here's how.

Eddie supports proprietary formats like Blackmagic's BRAW and R3D/RED. We don't support Canon RAW for example so you may want to create proxies if you shot on this format.

How to create proxies for Eddie AI:

Transcode your videos to h264/h265 MOVs and ensure the proxies keep the same start timecode, framerate, and resolution. This way when you go from Eddie back to your video editing application, all your. media will relink and then you can replace your proxies for your original videos.

Why .MOV? Because MOV supports timecode.

Now you can use Eddie with your unsupported footage via proxies.
