    Tips
     
    ●The preview window is used to easily confirm edited content, and the 
    picture quality in the preview window is lower than the actual picture 
    quality of the motion picture.
     
    ●Depending on your computer environment or the content you have 
    edited with this software, the audio and video may be out of sync in the 
    preview window. This is especially likely to occur in the following cases.
     
    - When multiple editing effects, titles, transitional effects etc. have 
    been set for a single scene.
