Timeline speed indicators show you the relative playback speed of clips in your sequence.
For example, suppose you have a 10-second clip in your sequence. At normal, 100 percent
speed, the Timeline speed indicators are evenly spaced, indicating that your clip is playing
forward at a constant speed.
At normal speed, the
speed indicators are
evenly spaced.
If you make a speed change to slow down a clip (setting the clip’s speed to 50 percent,
for example), the speed indicators are spaced farther apart as the clip grows longer,
indicating slower playback. If you speed up a clip (changing the speed to 200 percent,
for example), the speed indicators move closer together as the clip becomes shorter,
indicating faster playback.
