Video standard
PAL is used in Europe; the US and Japan use NTSC. This setting should not be changed.
Preview
The resolution can be reduced for video decoding, but this only has an effect while preview editing. If
playback becomes jerky, then we recommend entering a lower value. The quality of exported videos is
not influenced by this.
Video options
Hardware acceleration for 3D effects
Here you can (de)activate hardware acceleration of your graphics card for 3D effects. You can find
more information about this topic in the "3-D fades"
chapter.
High output quality with dynamic zoom and combination effects
If this option is set, then a newly developed zoom algorithm will be used that provides much more
accurate results. You should, however, only use this option if you own a PC that is capable of handling
processor-heavy tasks. Otherwise export (and invariably disc creation) can take a lot longer.
Reduce bitmap resolution for preview
During playback in MAGIX Xtreme PhotoStory on CD & DVD 8 deluxe images and photos will be
shown in lower resolution. The quality of the preview will be reduced, but this option helps save
computing resources.
