Creating previews
See your edits with automatic and manual previews while you work.
Previews show your changes rendered, on their own as you work or on demand when you're ready.
Automatic previews
Move the playhead and stop, and SportStudio builds a preview on its own. The status bar turns yellow while it renders and green when it's ready. Use the Auto dropdown to choose what renders on its own:
- None: auto-preview is off.
- Frame: a single still at the playhead, instant as you scrub.
- Current: a short span forward from the playhead.
Previews on demand
Press Return (or Numpad 0) to render now. The Return dropdown sets how much it renders:
- Frame: one still.
- Current: a short span forward of the playhead.
- Clip: the whole section the playhead is in.
- All: the entire timeline. Press Escape to cancel.
Pause previews when you want quiet
Toggle the eye-off control to pause auto-previews while you make a batch of changes. Return still previews on demand. Hold Shift while you scrub to skip the preview any time.
