Playing Back Video
592
• You need a video card that supports OpenGL (version 2.0 recommended) for
proper video playback. A card with OpenGL 1.2 can also be used, but might
put restrictions on the video functionality.
To check if your video equipment is capable of playing back a video from within
Cubase, open the Video Player page in the Device Setup dialog. If your system
does not meet the minimum video requirements, a corresponding message will be
displayed.
Device Setup
In the Device Setup dialog you determine which device is used for playing back
video files.
The Video Player page in the Device Setup dialog
You can switch between different output devices during playback.
Setting Up a Video Output Device
PROCEDURE
1. Open the Devices Menu and select “Device Setup...” to open the Device
Setup dialog, and select the Video Player page.
2. In the Active column, activate the checkbox for the device that you want to use
for playing back video.
All devices in your system that are capable of playing back video are listed. The
Onscreen Window device serves for playing back the video file on your computer
monitor.
3. From the pop-up menu in the Format column, select an output format.
For the Onscreen Window output, only a “fixed” format is available. For the other
output devices, you can select different output formats for playback depending on the
device.
4. Adjust the Offset setting to compensate for processing delays.
Due to delays while processing video, the video image may not match with the audio
in Cubase. By using the Offset parameter, you can compensate for this effect. The
Offset value indicates how many milliseconds the video will be delivered earlier in
order to compensate for the processing time of the video material. Each hardware
setup can have different processing delays, so you must try out different values to
determine which value is appropriate.
NOTE
• The Offset value can be set individually for each output device. It is saved
globally for each output device and is independent of the project.
