In cases where there is no lowres 3D proxy, you can choose to instead ingest a movie file e.g. a turntable rendering. In this case it will render a proxy movie and a filmstrip. These are the default proxy mov and filmstrip transcoding templates:

Ingest

Custom preview

For a custom preview you can set a thumbnail and a proxy file.

Custom thumbnail

To set a new thumbnail you can use the build in screenshot-button to take a screenshot of the current viewport.

An alternative is to drag&drop a custom screenshot or image on the element viewer. This will perform a copy of the dropped file to the thumbnail path as defined in the settings.

Custom 3D proxy

The proxy file can either be a 3D model (fbx, obj) or a movie file. Depending on the file type of your proxy and the file extension you choose in the transcoding template settings, it will load the proxy file.

Drag&drop a 3D proxy model on the 3D viewer (right side). This will perform a copy of the dropped file to the proxy path as defined in the settings.
