You do not have to uncheck the proxies before exporting your finished project, Blender is smart enough to handle that automatically.It is one of many video editors for Linux, some of which are meant for more professional video production ( Cinelerra and Lightworks). I like to select "proxy size 25%" under "proxy rend." And if you hover over the Sequencer View you will be able to press N, to see various render settings for that view.Afterwards you check and select "proxy custom file," where you then select the corresponding low-res file. Under each of the clips, find "proxy" and check it.When viewing the video sequencer timeline in Blender, select your high-res clips after importing them and press N.Keep the project's import settings high-res, meaning the video settings you would like to export the project in. Furthermore I also adjust the size of the low rez footage to 640x360px Take the high-res footage and create additional low-res versions.Any assistance, greatly appreciated.Īlright! After some trials I managed to find a functioning workflow for HD video editing using Blender and Avidemux. The program would just hang if I jumped to far out into the timeline and try to play the video. I wasn't able to edit the resulting file in Blender nor Openshot. Just now I tried bunching together five of the original files into a large 40gb. My plan was to import the resulting lossless files into Blender, Kdenlive or Openshot, and it seems that FFVHuff was the only codec that made it possible to move around the timeline in a decent way (at least in Blender).

Earlier I had briefly tried my hand at using. avi, and turning "Create OpenDML files" made it possible to create huge. Using Avidemux, I've experimented with various codecs: Huffyuv, H.264, FFV1 and FFVHuff. These hd files contain b-frames, which makes it quite hard to edit them because scrubbing the timeline goes all jittery.

I shot a 2hr debate on my Canon 550d which resulted in 16 video files of hd 1080p quality, since the sd cards put a 4gb size limit on the length of a single shot.

Question: Does anyone know of a good workflow for editing large video files via Avidemux, Blender, Openshot, Kdenlive and/or similar programs?
