I really really appreciate all this detailed feedback, it’s incredible helpful. =]
I’m not quite sure I fully understand this velocity thing though.
But before I ask about that again, I have another question. It’s the most annoying thing in the world when you’re playing a clip and it lags. When I’m using timeline 2 to piece together my actual video, and I play it (with track one muted =), thanks again) and it lags..or skips. I have a transition between to clips, and no matter how much bigger or smaller I make the view, it still skips right over that transition. Is there a way to fix this, make it play more efficiently, or does my computer just suck and i’m screwed? lol
I thought it might help to close out of all other programs to make the program work faster, but that didn’t work either. :/
and now about the velocity…if I didn’t want to use that, is there any other way?
for instance, i tried right clicking on the clip > properties > playback rate
and I made the number smaller and the clip seems to be a little slower. does that work too? or am i hallucinating? lol 😛
