edit video preview window not working in shrink 3.2

[klbierley]

Hello all, my main video preview window works fine but the one on the bottom left is not ( you are supposed) to be able to view what the extras are etc.... by highlighting then clicking on the play button to see if it is something you want to keep or replace with a still. Thanks in advance for any help and please also reply to klbierley@bellsouth.net

Look in the settings menus and make sure you have video preview enabled.

I had no luck finding exactly where the setting were pertaining to the video preview window. Thanks for the help. Kevin

click edit menu, then preferences, then preview tab and check enable video and audio preview.

Thanks, I had done that already even after a un-install and re-install ? I was thinking I must not have set someting else up correctly . everything else is working fine. But my video card is an older one. it is a Voodoo3 3dfx but it has always worked with no problems but perhaps that might be the problem ? . Thanks again and I look forward to any more suggestions as you know this feature would be very helpful. Kevin

have you tried upgrading Direct X drivers? I think its up to 9.0c now. Could try upgrading drivers for the video card itself if any newer ones are available.

Unfortunately I've never run into this exact problem and don't have much more insight to offer. Best thing to do would be visit the shrink website and ask on the forums about this.

Had the same problem. Solved by doing this. First select edit. Then select preferences and then the preview tab. Check the "enable audio and video preview" box. (I had already gotten to this step but it still didn't work). Then under "select Direct X video renderer", choose the option "built-in software renderer". After following this last step, the preview window on the lower left now works fine. Hope this works for you.

Hey guy's all set works great and it is so nice to be able to get rid of all the preview. Thanks again, Kevin
