Defining your General settings

Defining your General settings

The

Matrox Playback Settings

dialog box has several pages that you can use to

specify various settings for editing in Adobe Premiere Pro on Matrox RT.X2.
When you select a Matrox project preset, such as

DV Standard

, a Matrox

editing mode is automatically set for your project, and many settings are
optimized for editing on Matrox RT.X2.

° To specify your General settings on Matrox RT.X2:

1

Choose

Project > Project Settings > General

and click the

Playback

Settings

button.

2

Click the

General

tab.

3

Under

Scrubbing Mode

, select

Frame

,

1st Field

, or

2nd Field

to indicate

whether you want to display frames or only one field when you scrub a
sequence in the

Timeline

panel. For example, you may want to scrub the

first or second field to eliminate the flickering that can be seen in your
picture when you pause while scrubbing interlaced video. Scrubbing fields
can also be used to check for any dropped fields that may have occurred in
your video during a telecine process.

¦

Note

If you choose to scrub fields when working with progressive scan

video, you won’t normally see a difference between scrubbing the first or
second field.
