Preview Your Movie
Before you commit your movie to disc, it’s a good idea to
preview it to make sure all of your clips and effects are working
to create the movie you want. It is highly recommended that you
preview your movie at least once before production so you can
solve problems without spending time unnecessarily in
production.
Preview Your Movie in the Preview
Window
You can preview your movie at any point during the editing
process in order to ensure that your editing is going smoothly.
Using the Timeline slider, you can preview your movie
production from any point within the Timeline.

the preview window is in Movie mode. If the preview is
in Clip mode, click the Movie button before
