Roll your mouse over a thumbnail icon, and it begins to play the video scene in miniature. As
well, a small running timecode panel shows the current location in the clip, and its duration.
Video projects often involve many similar clips. This animated preview is a great help in
distinguishing one clip from another.
Hint: Sometimes, a longer clip may best be distinguished from a similar one by viewing a bit near
the end. To reverse the direction of the preview, hold down the Alt key. You can also engage Fast
Forward and Fast Reverse, by adding the Shift key to the operation (The Shift key causes playback
at 10X the normal rate.)
VIEW OPTIONS
The Media Bin drop down menu in the upper right corner controls
the appearance of items in the Bin. By default this menu is set to
Large Icon. You can use this menu to radically alter the Filebin’s
appearance and features.
Try the different view options out, and you’ll quickly see how they
affect the display. The right/left arrow buttons above this menu
are Forward and Backward buttons for the Media Bin window.
The only view option that requires a little longer explanation is the Details
view (Details Only is similar, but omits the file icon).
Details view gives you a lot of in-depth information about your files, as follows.
