To enrich the editing experience, you may want to use a higher quality monitor. Important factors when editing video are the sharpness of the image and the size of the monitor. The Video Edit Magic window has three sub-windows, and displays a lot of information. A larger monitor lets more information show at one time, makes the Preview window clearer and more useful, and lets more of the Timeline fit onto the screen. Flat panel monitors have become very popular due to a sharp decrease in their cost. They also consume less energy and take up less space on your desk than the older-style CRT monitors.
The video card creates the signals that control the monitor—it's the way the PC tells the monitor what to display. The video card and monitor together determine the quality of the picture. Video editing generally does not require a video card upgrade, unless your current card can't display at a sufficiently high resolution.
Optimizing Windows
It is recommended that you work with Windows XP or newer for video editing. This gives you stability and good multimedia support. These versions also manage system memory better than older editions of Microsoft Windows.
Updating video drivers
Software applications control the hardware components in your PC by using drivers. Outdated drivers can cause system slowdown and the occasional crash. Keeping your drivers current will maximize your system's speed and help keep it stable.
You can update drivers by using Windows Update. Windows Update keeps drivers up to date for hardware components from major manufacturers. Many computer makers also provide automatic update software for the components of their systems. Finally, you can visit the hardware manufacturer's website for driver updates.
Disable screen savers and power settings
Disable screen savers, and change the power save settings (turning off automatic hard drive shutoff, standby, and hibernation), so that the editing process (especially capture and rendering) is not interrupted.
Its essential for any artist to have the right tools. Once you get your hardware right, you will surprise yourself with the wonderful videos you create using Video Edit Magic.
So, why not enjoy a more satisfying editing experience by upgrading your system?
