ULEAD VIDEOSTUDIO USER GUIDE
SmartRender Technology
Speed is usually one of the primary concerns of users when editing videos. While
working on a video project, usually, you will want to preview the project as you
edit, and it can be quite discouraging if you have to wait a long time to see the
results of your work.
Ulead VideoStudio's SmartRender feature makes previewing and creating movies a
lot faster. When you preview your video project for the first time, VideoStudio
'renders' the project by creating a temporary preview file on your hard disk which
combines the video, image, and audio clips with the special effects which you
applied to them. The SmartRender feature detects any changes in your project,and
if there are no changes, instantly plays back the preview file. If there are changes
(for instance, when titles, video filters or transition effects have been added), it
renders out only the edited portions, making render times much shorter and faster.
The SmartRender feature also skips re-rendering when the properties of the
captured video are consistent with the project settings. It only renders your project
the first time you inserted your captured video clips. When you add more captured
video clips, VideoStudio directly plays back the project without rendering.
In addition to previewing your video files, Ulead VideoStudio gives you an option to
instantly preview your project without creating temporary files. With the Instant
Playback option, you can play the entire project without having to wait then
preview it immediately.
DV SmartPlay
Ulead VideoStudio's DV SmartPlay feature plays a video project directly from the
Timeline out to a DV/D8 camcorder without rendering a movie file. It also lets you
view your project on an external TV monitor if your IEEE-1394 capture card
supports such monitor connection. While you are viewing your project on a DV/D8
camcorder, you can simultaneously record the project to the videotape by pressing
Record on your camcorder.
DVD, VCD, SVCD and HD DVD
There are several factors to consider in choosing an output format for your project.
These include your desired output quality, target playback device, and viewing
screen size, among others. Here are the advantages and disadvantages that
picking each output format entails:
