Chapter 2: Using the New
Features in Premiere 6.5
Using Real-Time Preview
Adobe Premiere 6.5 includes software-based Real-Time Preview among its Timeline
preview options. You can preview the Timeline without any additional hardware.
Premiere's Real-Time Preview supports all Premiere effects, transitions, transparencies,
motion settings, and titles. You set all the preview options in the Project Settings
dialog box.
Premiere dynamically adjusts video quality and frame rate as it previews in real-time.
When Premiere performs a real-time preview on a system with inadequate resources, or
on a particularly complex section of the Timeline, the preview quality degrades gracefully.
In this instance, fewer frames are played and the video drops to draft quality.
Note: Preview to RAM is no longer an option in Premiere.
To set the Real-Time Preview option in Windows:
1
Choose Project > Project Settings > Keyframe and Rendering.

Select Real-Time Preview and click OK.
