it depends on what your project consists of:
1. if its videos – use proxies
2.if its 3d scenes and complicated effects try
1.render the scenes that are done (like background)
2.try using the capslock and than
move from scene to scene (it will save you the time
getting there..)
3.try toggeling the quality slider
thats all I can think of right now
maybe if you provided more details I could
remembers other stuff

hey andrew whats up
I know I can press . and preview it but it has to render the file
and I dont want to do that (waste of time)
my question was about playing back the audio I have in after effects
the same way it is in after 6.5 : pressing twice on the imported file
opens a little player (I think its quicktime).
I think the solution is changing what after thinks is the external application
that should open the file because it gives me the after effects composition window
with an audio in it. (it wont play the sound)

hey thanks
but the problem is that the footage window
whice is opened in ae7 doesnt play the audio
only shows a timeline as if the file is a jpg or something.
the problem is I cant hear it without rendering it or opening
an external application (ctrl+e) by just clicking twice on
the file (which I could do in ae6.5)
