SmartRender and Play Project button
SmartRender technology allows “changes-only” rendering which eliminates the need to re-
render entire video sequences when only slight changes have been made. This is especially
useful for rendering across transitions, title sequences, or to check the timing of audio clips in
relation to the associated video. It is advisable that projects are rendered regularly to reduce
overall render times.
While editing, you will want to preview your
work frequently to see how your project is
progressing. Play Project allows you to
select between Instant Preview and High
Quality Preview. The first allows you to
preview changes in your project without the
need to create a temporary preview file. The
latter renders a preview file and provides a
quick preview right after.
Play Project in Navigator
For faster previews, you may choose to play
only a part of your project. The selected
range of frames to preview is referred to as
the preview area, and it is marked as a red
bar in the Ruler Panel.
To play the preview area only:
1. Use the Trim Bar or the Mark in/out
buttons to select the preview area.
The Preview range mark in and Preview
range mark out timecodes will then be
displayed in the Options Panel.
2. To preview the selected range of frames, hold
[Shift] and select a preview option (Instant
Preview or High Quality Preview).
Or, when the desired preview option is
already selected, hold [Shift] and click Play
Project.
