frames within the video and position the playback

be reached quickly.

If performance deteriorates due to hardware limitations, high-res source material or
project complexity, you can "activate" a smoother preview during editing using this
function.
In the selection menu, you can set which
functions you want to use for the optimized
preview when this button is activated: reducing
resolution, reducing frame rate, deactivating
plug-ins and/or effects.
"Reduce resolution" and "Reduce frame rate" are preset.
