Canon EOS 5D Mark IV - Smooth Proxy Editing 4K in Sony Vegas Pro
How to deal with the huge MJPEG files when editing...
In this video I show you how proxy editing in Sony Vegas Pro can help to speed up the processing of large, MJPEG Canon EOS 5D Mark IV 4K video files.
The other alternative in dealing with these humongous files is to transcode them out to another codec such as Apple Pro Res but this way could be quicker depending on your machine and if your editing software can do proxies.
