Choppy or uneven playback
Don't panic if the picture on your screen is choppy or uneven. The finished product will look perfect and
play smoothly. Don't forget that MAGIX Xtreme PhotoStory on CD & DVD 8 deluxe calculates all
effects in real time. This lets you see for yourself what sort of influence each of the effects will have on
your video footage. Some effects make even today's high-performance PCs work quite hard, and often,
a steady, continuous video stream is simply not possible on your PC. The final product, free from
previous choppiness, is only available after rendering it to DVD or exporting it. For that reason, you
should first edit the movie in its raw version without effects. The preview generally delivers a steady
picture, allowing you to work quickly and quietly. Towards the end, you can add effects to your movies
to give them a special touch of Hollywood!
