-- Posted by ElfQrin at 7:04 pm on Aug. 7, 2008 I just got Final Cut Express on my computer and have installed it. I needed a step up from Pinnacle Studio. However right now I don't like it because why should I wait forever to get my base video rendered just so I can see it when I can drop it into Studio or even iMovie and DONT have to have it rendered? Same with every other edit I make? What happened to a real-time adjustment? Is there a feature I should enable? Why is it doing this? thanks, Daniel -- Posted by DefaultTo0 at 11:21 am on Aug. 22, 2008 I'm absolutely sure there should be a feature which would mean the whole video would not have to be rendered before playback.  The video editing software should deal with all your video edits on the fly - that's why they usually take up so much RAM. I realise you haven't had an answer to this for two weeks now - any luck yet? -- Posted by ElfQrin at 6:41 am on Aug. 23, 2008 Quote: from DefaultTo0 at 2:21 pm on Aug. 22, 2008 I'm absolutely sure there should be a feature which would mean the whole video would not have to be rendered before playback.

Thanks for checking in, again. -D
