When you import a media file, Filmora may ask you to create a proxy file to accelerate your editing process.

A proxy file is a second media file smaller than your original file. Usually, more timeline efficiency will be required when the video has a very high resolution.

Creating a proxy file can lower the video resolution in the editing to accelerate the whole editing process without affecting the final export quality.
