Wait for the Green Light over the PLAY button.

[Tom Wood]

It's, um, a subtle thing on a LCD monitor. I was about to blame these nice new SCSI drives, when I re-read the section in the manual on rendering. (Okay, I skimmed it the first time.) Green light? What green light?

I was having trouble playing a section with -only- four video overlays and a CG text crawl, plus some still over/underlays. That CG text crawl really has an impact. Wait for the light, plays flawlessly. :rolleyes:

Yeah, yeah, RTFM...

Hey Tom,
Where did you find that in the manual? i finally figured out the green light became a green bar, but it took a while. Never did find a mention of it in the manual. A Table of Contents is a really neat thing. (hint)

Hi Lew,

Yeah, it's really a green bar, sorry about that. It's mentioned on page 8.8 in the section for 8: VT-Edit.
