When thumbnails are displayed, the image shown is the first frame of the clip or the In
point of the clip, if one is set. You can scrub through a thumbnail by dragging in the
image, but the frame shown in the Browser always reverts to the Media Start or In
point of the clip.

You can change the starting image (called the poster frame) if you want to display
another frame in the thumbnail. For more information, see “

Setting the Poster Frame

on page 70.

To hide thumbnails:

m

Control-click the Thumbnail column heading, then choose Hide Column from the
shortcut menu.

scrubbing through is
highlighted.
