Specify whether to render audio when rendering video
You can specify whether Premiere Pro renders audio previews by default.
Select Sequence > Render Effects In to Out, or Sequence > Render In to Out. These commands are used you have set In and Out points to mark
the area to render audio previews, rather than the work area bar.
Rendering audio previews could improve playback performance, but could take additional time when you select either of these commands.
1. Select Edit > Preferences > General (Windows), or Premiere Pro > Preferences > General (Mac OS).
2. Select or deselect Render Audio When Rendering Video.
3. Click OK.
Specify the duration for preroll and postroll pauses
You can set the length of preroll and postroll for clip and sequence previews in the General pane of the Preferences dialog box.
The Preroll and Postroll fields are different from the Preroll setting in the Device Control pane of the Preferences dialog box. The Preroll
setting in the Device Control pane affects the control of external devices such as VTRs and camcorders.
1. Select Edit > Preferences > General (Windows) or Premiere Pro > Preferences > General (Mac OS).
2. In the Preroll and Postroll fields, type in the number of seconds for each.
3. Click OK.
Specify scratch disks to improve system performance
When you edit a project, Premiere Pro uses disk space to store files required by your project. Premiere Pro stores captured video and audio,
conformed audio, and preview files. Premiere Pro uses conformed audio files and preview files to optimize performance, allowing real-time editing,
32-bit floating-point quality, and efficient output.
All scratch disk preferences are saved with each project. You can select different scratch disk locations for different projects. If you reopen an
earlier project after editing another project with different scratch disk locations, Premiere Pro will seek out the files belonging to the earlier project
at the scratch disk locations you chose for that project.
If you delete preview files or conformed audio files for a project, Premiere Pro automatically recreates them when you reopen the project.
By default, scratch disk files are stored where you save the project. The scratch disk space required increases as sequences become longer or
more complex. For best performance, dedicate a hard disk or disk strictly for your media assets. Choose a disk for the assets other than the disk
where you keep your project file, operating system files, or the files for applications. That way your media disks can access and play media files as
