PROOF · FILM RIOT
1,500 miles apart.7 TB of media. Home internet.
“It felt like I was working off a drive connected directly to my local system. It just played like local footage.”
Ryan Connolly, Film Riot
THE HONEST PHYSICS
It plays like local footage.
Here’s why.
Proxies
Edit proxies. Finish at the source.
Full-resolution RAW is too big for the open internet, so remote editing rides proxies. Cut with them, then relink to the originals on the host and export there. Anyone claiming otherwise is buffering.
Cache and pin
Pin what you’re cutting.
Files cache on your machine as you work. Pin a folder to keep it local.
Adaptive Quality
Playback that adjusts to your connection.
Quality steps down when the connection dips and back up when it recovers. The playhead never stops.
RAW playback
Review RAW anywhere. Today.
Play R3D, BRAW and Canon RAW at full resolution over a normal connection, de-bayered on your machine. JKL, frame stepping and up to 10× speed.

QUESTIONS
Your questions,

Do I have to use proxies?
