CHAPTER 3: EDITING 93
Previewing on an external device
Preview your video and transition effects on an external device. You can use your
TV (if you have a dual-head display card) and even your DV camcorder's LCD
screen to preview your project. You can set the external preview viewing device by
selecting File: Playback Options.
To set an external preview viewing device for your transition effects, click
in
the transition effect's dialog box.
Managing preview files
The files that are created for the preview (if high-quality playback is selected) are
saved in a temporary folder that can be set from File: Preferences on the
Preview tab. Preview files can take up a huge amount of disk space, so it is
important to set these folders up properly. Sometimes, MediaStudio Pro will
generate a "Not enough disk space" error when previewing. This error often occurs
because you need to specify additional space for these files on another disk.
Specific preview files can be controlled by going to File: Preview Files Manager.
You can see how much disk space your preview files occupy and then decide
whether or not to delete them.
