Well I just did some tests, created some proxy media of both HD and SD footage.
Had a look. Yup the SD looks like Pea Soup shot through a stocking.
Went to the desktop opened the proxy media and deleted the file.
Used FCP to find the original and then COPIED it into the Proxy folder. Voila Proxy came back!
And looking much much better.
Next I removed the file from the proxy folder and replaced it with an alias, and it still worked.
This is great!

Great!
And if you applied a resize for example, when in optimised, if you switch to proxy, does it all work fine? I always wondered if there 'incorrect proxy frame size' of the SD (the new one's you've replaced with) would throw it.
Or maybe FCP is being more cleaver/stupid than i think, and just treats the proxy files as if they are the original frame size anyway.
