Summary0000582: When using Proxy Jpeg sequence, put in subdirectory
DescriptionWhen using Proxy with the jpeg sequence, so many files are created and it interferes with the "real" video files and is messy.
It would be better to have the jpeg sequence proxy files put into a subdirectory thus making it easy to clean it up later.
 
Current workaround at a terminal window while being very careful:

   rm -f *.proxy*.jpg

Requesting an option to the JPEG Sequence exporter that places the frames in their own directory.
TagsNo tags attached.

Andrew provided a patch to begin with, but I think the concept in this BT is just going to be too confusing so will close soon as "not going to do". Attaching patch here though so it does not get lost.
