Using the Player panel

The Player panel consists of the Preview window and the Navigation area, which provides buttons for playback and for precision trimming of clips. Use the controls in the Navigation area to move around a selected clip or your project. Use the Trim Markers and Scrubber to edit your clips. In the Capture workspace, this panel also acts as the device control for a DV or HDV camcorder.

To preview projects or clips

While working on your project, you will want to preview your work frequently to see how your project is progressing. Instant Playback allows you to quickly preview changes in your project. Playback quality will be dependent on your computer’s resources.

You may choose to play only a part of your project. The selected range of frames to preview is referred to as the preview range, and it is marked as a colored bar in the Ruler Panel.
