Settings for and management of video projectors 261
This mode works better than the standard mode (Overlay Mixer) only for a few
graphics card models.
Standard renderer: The DirectShow standard renderer is used for viewing.
Image formation in Vertical Blank Intervals (VBI)
The image formation takes place in the vertical blank intervals of the monitor signal
(or the connected TV signal). This helps avoid image interruptions. Warning: Because
of the necessary waiting time on the next VBI, this process adds significant
computation time!
You can deactivate this option for digital displays such as TFT monitors. In "Overlay"
mode, image formation occurs exclusively via VBI.
Acceleration for high-resolution MPEG2 files
This option can be selected only in the "Hardware acceleration (Direct 3D)" video
mode and indicates that videos in MPEG-2 format will be processed directly from the
graphics card GPU. Depending on the graphics card performance, an improvement of
up to 300% can be achieved!
De-interlacing
The DirectShow modes "Overlay mixer" and "Video mixing renderer 9" enable
activation of hardware de-interlacing for the graphics card. For general information
about de-interlacing and the options "Top/bottom field first", please read the
corresponding article "De-interlacing (view page 373)" in the manual.
Comparison image in source monitor for editing effects in the Media Pool
If this option is activated, the "Selected objects without effects" comparison mode will
be automatically activated when switching into the Media Pool effects, and will be
automatically deactivated when the mode is exited. This serves to compare the
original and edited image.
This automation will be suppressed if the option is deactivated.
Proxy and preview rendering
The proxy/preview rendering settings affect the way in which MAGIX Video Pro X6
renders selected ranges in the project window. This dialog can be accessed through
"File" -> "Settings" -> "Proxy and preview rendering".
