I do that when working with only one machine, but with a farm working on a stack one needs skip existing on. Traffic managed renders, like backburner,
allow one to overwrite ranges of files and makes sure only one machine per frame.
I’ll try your idea of proxies.

Not that I know of. This "enhancement" in CS6 has caused some concern to several people already... Why not just overwrite the PNGs directly? Otehr than that you might consider creating a proxy and then toggle the proxy state as needed...

Is there a way to suppress AfterFX from checking for updated footage?
Oftentimes I chop out sections of .png stacks and re-render on them farm. I continue to work with that footage in AfterFX, but I am continuously interrupted
as AE checks for changed footage.
Thnx
