Apple Final Cut Pro 7 - Manual (Page 1422)

• The capabilities of the currently selected video effects accelerator card (if you are using
one for real-time video processing)
Note: The number of effects that appear in boldface may change depending on the
current sequence settings and which real-time playback settings are selected.
Locations for Changing Real-Time Playback Settings
Real-time playback options can be adjusted in three locations:
• The Playback Control tab of the System Settings window
• The RT pop-up menu in the Timeline
• The Render Control tab of the Sequence Settings window
Note: The Playback Control tab and the RT pop-up menu contain many of the same
settings, so the settings are described in
“About Real-Time Playback Options.”
Playback Control Tab in System Settings
The Playback Control tab is located in the System Settings window. It shows you all
real-time settings available, although some may not apply to certain sequences. Changes
you make here are applied systemwide, so they remain the same for all currently open
sequences and projects.
Many of the same
settings are found in
the RT pop-up menu
in the Timeline.
To open the Playback Control tab
µ
Choose Final Cut Pro > System Settings, then click the Playback Control tab.
