    Adjust playback resolution quality in Prelude?

    NickBoston Community Member

      Can anyone figure this out?   I found this in the online PDF in Prelude.

       

       

      But I can't find the "output" button. 

       

      Thanks

       

      Set display quality

       

      Some formats are difficult to display in full-motion playback because of their high compression or high data rate. A lower resolution permits faster motion playback but at the expense of image quality. This tradeoff is most noticeable when you view AVCHD and other H.264 -codec based media. Below full resolution these formats have error correction turned off, and artifacts are common during playback. These artifacts, however, do not show up in exported media.

      Use separate playback and pause resolutions to gain more control over the monitoring experience. With high-resolution footage, set playback resolution to a lower value (for example, 1/4) for smooth playback, and set the Pause resolution to Full. These settings allow you to check the quality of focus or edge details when you pause playback. Scrubbing puts the monitor in playback resolution, not pause resolution.

       

      1. Click the Output button.
      2. Select an option for Playback Resolution and Paused Resolution.
