|

. When you choose a simple device from the Device menu, Media Player is ready to start playing whatever is currently loaded in the hardware device. Compound devices require, in addition to the device name, a specified media file (such as the synthesizer t

You use Media Player to control the playing of a media sequence. However, if you embed a media clip into a document in another application, you do not have to leave that application to edit the clip. Because the media clip is embedded, you can start Media
|
|
Player from the other application, edit the media clip, and then close Media Player.
|
|
\par \pard\plain \s6\li120\sb120\sa40\sl-240 \b\f4\fs20\lang1033 To edit an embedded media clip:
|
|
\par \pard\plain \li120\sl-240 \f4\fs20\lang1033 1\tab Open the document in which you have embedded a media clip.
|
|
\par 2\tab Select the embedded clip you want to edit.
|
|
\par 3\tab From the Edit menu, choose Media Clip Object.
|
|
\par \tab The Media Clip menu appears next to the Media Clip Object command.
|
|
\par 4\tab From the Media Clip menu, choose Edit.
|
|
\par \tab Media Player opens with the file open or the device selected.

|
\par 5\tab Edit the media clip as needed.

\par \tab Media Player closes, and Windows returns you to the document in the other application.

Prioritizes the sound track of a video sequence above the frame. If Media Player cannot maintain the playback pace, it skips video frames to keep pace with the audio track. If this option is not selected, media Player plays all frames of the video sequenc

\par \pard\plain \s5\li720\sl-240\tx360 \f4\fs20\lang1033 Provides a slightly faster playback rate by omitting updates to an
|
|
off-screen buffer of the playback window. If your system cannot keep pace with the playback rate of a video sequence, but lags only slightly, this option might allow you to play the video sequence at its normal rate without dropping frames.
|
|
\par
|
|
\par If you select this option and your system still lags behind the playback rate of the video sequence, the video images might become fuzzy. Also, since a copy of the playback window is not being updated off screen, jumping to another position within a video
|
|
sequence will probably result in a distorted image until Media Player reaches the next full frame.
