Proxy Video is a form of metadata. It consists of highly compressed, very low resolution video (with sound) that mirrors a high resolution original master digital recording. Since proxy AV data is timecode synchronized with the original, much smaller, and can be sent faster than real-time over TCP/IP networks, it can be used quickly for viewing, scripting, and editing.
In DIVArchive, a media location can be used as either a source, a destination, or both. How the location is identified and used is determined by the operations being performed.
