Turning off the layer preview?

[Mike27]

Love this software, but only started using it very recently. I am working on a project for a friend that involves layering music videos of various instrumental players like violins, violas and such.

My concern is that ever time I move a layer around to adjust, the software has to rebuild the "preview" that is on the layer (that is, the many little tiny pictures that show you what the video looks like).

I would like to DISABLE that feature as it is totally unnecessary and eats up a lot of processing power. But try as I might, I can't seem to find a way to turn it off. Is there one?

Thank you for any help.

what software?

VSDC Video Editor.

I am trying to tie many videos together and am running into problems. The first of which is the endless redrawing of the preview pictures on the timeline layers. Very annoying. I would like to turn that off if possible.

Now I am finding that I cannot resize the videos.

Lastly, I am running 15 videos concurrently, and the software cannot keep up apparently. I wonder what software people use to make all those youtube videos of many instruments playing at once?
