Timeline Settings

Open the Timeline option in the Settings tab, and you'll see following options:

Show filmstrip and audio waveform - Check the box before this option, and you can see series of snapshots and audio waves on the timeline. If disabled, it shows only the cover image of a video clip, for fast loading.

Playback Priority - Expand the drop-down menu in the option. Choose to give a high priority to the audio or video quality when the playback is lagging esp. on low-end or old computers.

• Audio (Default): It is recommended for most cases because audio is always stable.
• Video: High-quality preview of each frame but may change the voice pitch or lose some audio.
• Audio (Drop Frame): Not recommended unless the playback keeps lagging or freezing seriously due to too many effects and transitions. It may drop some frames, but won't impact the output quality.

Photo Duration - Specify how long the image you import to the timeline lasts. You can choose 1- 9 sec or customize it in the drop-down menu.

Transition Duration - Set the length of a transition from 1 second to 10 seconds. By default, it lasts for 2 seconds.

Effect Duration - Set the duration of the effect you add to the timeline. By default, it lasts for 5 seconds.

GPU Settings

By fully utilizing hardware acceleration, VideoProc Vlogger decodes, processes, and encodes large UHD 4K videos fast and smoothly even on low-end computers. Click GPU under the Editor settings or scroll down the window to move to GPU settings.

Scan Hardware - Hit this button to let VideoProc Vlogger detect the hardware info of your computer.

Enable hardware acceleration for video decoding - Check the box before it and select a GPU in the drop-down menu. Then, VideoProc Vlogger will activate GPU to decode H.264/AVC and H.265/HEVC videos when you load them to this software.

Enable hardware acceleration for video encoding - Check the box before and select a GPU in the drop-down menu. Then, VideoProc Vlogger will activate GPU to help render an H.264 or H.265/HEVC video when you add effects to it and export it from this software.

Once you change any of these options, they are applied in VideoProc Vlogger immediately. You just need to close the Settings tab and get back to the main UI.
