on the left. Here you can make settings for the behavior and properties
of video objects.
The duration for fade-in and fade-out apply to creation of new video objects, e.g. when dragging a video from the Media Pool into the timeline. The default values are zero.
Place a checkmark next to the control tracks new video objects are to be provided with. See also Visual effects.
When there is a checkmark next to Show duration, the object duration is shown in the object info line.
Under Frame buffer you can specify the frame buffer size for optimization via the SmartSync EngineTM. Usually, 2 to 3 frames should do. Higher values improve reliability but use up more graphics memory.
At Preload time you can specify how many seconds before video playback preloading is to start at the earliest. If many videos are played at the same time, the video files are also loaded at a later time. The default preload value is 60 seconds.
The
preload time can also be set for individual video objects. See Video Object Properties.
The Crossfade setting applies to newly created tracks. However, it can be changed any time in the track properties.
Standard crossfade ...fades out the first object while simultaneously fading in the next object.
Unilateral crossfade ...fades in the second object while maintaining full opacity or brightness of the first object. The second object covers up the first object, so to say. This setting is usually the correct choice for tracks with alpha control. However, there are also some exceptions, e.g. when pictures with differing aspect ratios are dissolved.
Here you can enter the frame frequency to be used by default when importing picture sequences to the Media Pool.
