Hi,
i think you can delete them if you don’t see need for them any more.
The autosave would normally not take much space, so i would concentrate on the proxies.
I dont think Shotcut will delete these one time, as it cant know if you still need it.

I set up proxy storage to be created in the project folder.
I also indicate a folder (which I call Orphans Proxy) so that proxy files created without being associated with a project (those that are created without having previously created or saved a project), are saved in this folder.

Normally I create a project with the appropriate resolution and FPS. Then I save the project. I look for the folder where the .MLT file is. Then I drag all the media files I use in the project into that folder. This way I can open the project on another computer or operating system by copying the entire project folder.

Hello,
Thank you for your mail, I do almost the same thing except that I name them “atelier x, y” with its sub files such as: audio, base images, mlt videos and processed images.
I do not see the difference between “project” and “source” so I created the above procedure.
Thank you for your advice.
