Proxymity 0.9.2 beta
Proxy builder for DaVinci Resolve Studio

Proxymity runs on your Mac, inside DaVinci Resolve Studio 21 or higher.
Open it from Workspace > Scripts > Proxymity. Select Media Pool clips,
review audio channel routing, choose an output folder and profile, and
generate.

It keeps the original embedded audio channel count and bakes boom, lav,
and camera mapping into separate PCM channels. Outputs keep the exact
source frame rate and timecode, as H.264 all-I with no B-frames. Supported
rates: 23.976, 24, 25, 29.97, 30, 50, 59.94, and 60 fps. Drop-frame
timecode is kept.

You can use named profiles and saved settings, quarter, half, or full
size, and filename and timecode burn-ins. Generation shows progress and
an ETA, and you can cancel, resume, retry, and read QA reports and logs.
Make reel joins ticked clips into one dailies file with chapters, a CSV,
and an EDL. Linking proxies back into Resolve is optional and off by
default. RED R3D footage can be decoded with REDline, which you install
yourself. Saved lists are kept. Work runs locally, with no per-frame
model calls.

Editorial command-line tools: index, search, stringout, view, audio,
lint, diff, and music-cut.

Install from Terminal

Paste this into Terminal:

curl -fsSL https://proxymity.moo.llc/get.sh | bash

Install by hand, in 3 steps

1. Download Proxymity-0.9.2-macOS.zip from https://proxymity.moo.llc
2. Unzip it.
3. Right-click "Install Proxymity.command" and choose Open. The first
   time, choose Open because the file is downloaded and not signed.

Open it in Resolve

Open DaVinci Resolve, then Workspace > Scripts > Proxymity.

Uninstall

Open Terminal, go to the unzipped Proxymity folder, and run:

bash uninstall.sh

This moves the installed files and the Resolve script to the Trash.
If you installed from Terminal and no longer have that folder, download
the zip again, unzip it, and run the same command.
If nothing is installed, the script says so and finishes successfully.

Requirements

- macOS 12 or later. Built to run on macOS 12 or later, tested on one
  current macOS version.
- DaVinci Resolve Studio 21 or higher.
- Python 3.11 or newer. Tested on Python 3.14 only. The installer finds
  Python for you.
- ffmpeg and ffprobe, with the libx264 encoder. In Terminal, run:
  brew install ffmpeg
  If the brew command is not found, install Homebrew from https://brew.sh
  and then run that command.
- Optional: REDline, from RED's REDCINE-X PRO, for R3D footage. Proxymity
  does not install REDline and does not redistribute it.

Limits

- This release is macOS only. Windows is not supported yet.
- Generation is verified. Playback of linked proxies is verified only
  for linked-recorder clips.
- Camera-raw formats are not supported: Blackmagic RAW, ARRIRAW,
  Canon RAW, and ProRes RAW.
- Variable-frame-rate phone footage, and 48 fps and 120 fps, are
  untested or skipped.
- No encoder speedup is claimed.

The installer writes install.log next to the installed app. The Resolve
script appends launcher.log in the data folder.
