Show All Video Frames: When available processing power is insufficient to play the
clip or clips at the position of the playhead due to the grade, transforms, or effects
that are applied at that moment in the Timeline, you have the ability to choose
exactly how performance in DaVinci Resolve degrades. When off, DaVinci Resolve
prioritizes audio playback at the expense of dropping video frames when processing
power is tight, resulting in a more conventional playback experience. When on,
audio quality is compromised while every frame of video plays in slower-than-real
time to maintain playback.
–
Show Zoomed Audio Waveform: When enabled, shows an audio waveform
overlay at the bottom of the Source Viewer with a zoomed in section of the audio
surrounding the current position of the playhead.
–
Show Full Clip Audio Waveform: When enabled, shows an audio waveform overlay
at the bottom of the Source Viewer that displays the audio over the entire duration of
the clip.

Show Marker Overlays: Enabled by default, markers that intercept the playhead
when playback is paused appear superimposed in the Viewer.
–
Markers submenu: When one or more markers are applied to the clip in the Source

Viewer.
 Timeline Viewer Option menu: Contains the following commands:
–
Gang Viewers: With Gang Viewers enabled, the movement of the Source and
Timeline Viewer playheads is locked together, so that they move in unison. This
is useful when you’re matching the timing of part of a clip in the Source Viewer to
match an event in the Timeline.

Offline Reference Movie button: If you’ve assigned an offline reference movie to
the currently selected timeline, clicking the Offline Mode button lets you display the
offline movie so you can compare it with the currently open timeline. In this mode,
Source and Timeline playback are synced; an Offset field replaces the duration field,
letting you re-sync the offline reference movie, if necessary.
