Ok, so if we are following this route, I would have to write some script
to transform the xml accordingly, at least for masks. Or we could do only
the basic editing with the proxies and have to switch to the original
resoulution for any more complex operations .

Are there any other possibilities to avoid this problem? So the Cinelerra
session is working with the full resolution internally, but we provide only
material of lower resolution. As we don't ever use the full resolution for
playback in cinelerra, there should be a sufficient performance gain?
Is this reasoning right? (probably it is naiive :-) )
Anyone tried this alredy?

Cheers,
Hermann
