Defining your video preview settings

When you select a Matrox sequence preset, an appropriate preview file format
and codec are automatically set for previewing your video on Matrox Axio.
Depending on your sequence's video format, you can select a different codec to
render your video previews. For details on configuring Matrox codec settings, see
"Configuring the Matrox DVCPRO HD codec"
Matrox Uncompressed codecs"
MPEG-2 I-frame codecs"
Remarks
• When you configure a Matrox uncompressed codec (SD or HD resolution),
make sure you choose the appropriate bit depth and scan mode for your
sequence's format. For example, if you are working with a 10-bit progressive
video sequence, set 10-bit as your bit depth and Progressive as the scan
mode.
• The Matrox DVCPRO HD codec is supported for rendering video previews
in 1080i @ 25 fps and 29.97 fps projects only. When you configure the
Matrox DVCPRO HD codec, make sure that you choose the frame rate that
matches your sequence's video format.
• When selecting a standard or widescreen preview file format for an SD
sequence, make sure that you select the format that matches your sequence's
video format, such as NTSC Standard for a Matrox NTSC standard
sequence.
• The Matrox MPEG-2 I-frame codec is not supported for rendering video
previews in Matrox NTSC and 486p sequences. As an alternative for these
sequences, you can set the preview file format to I-Frame Only MPEG to
render your video previews using the Adobe MPEG I-frame codec.
For details on specifying additional settings for your video previews, see your
Adobe Premiere Pro documentation.
