234 Corel VideoStudio
Also known as Firewire, 1394 is standard that allows high-speed serial connections between
the computer and an HDV/DV camcorder, or other high speed peripheral device. Devices
conforming to recent updates to this standard are capable of transmitting digital data at 400
megabits per second.
Instant Playback
Allows you to view the entire project without rendering. It instantly plays all the clips in the
Preview Window without creating a temporary preview file in your system. Playback quality
is dependent on your hardware configuration.
If Instant Playback results in drop frames, then use High Quality Playback to preview a

requirements helps control how smoothly the video plays back.
