Real Time Effects

[DVX100Shooter]

What do I need to set to add effects to the timeline and play them in real time with no render bars? I have my RT set to Unlimited and not Safe for the last several projects I have edited and still got the red, orange, or green bars when I added dissolves and other effects.

I think the amount of RT you get depends a lot on your processor speed and available RAM. All the BOLD effects should show up in real time. I'm working on a dual 1Ghz G4 with 1GB RAM and I have a reasonable amount of RT. But of all my filters probably only 25% work in RT.

I've never bothered to do this, but I think if you work in a lower resolution then you'll see much more RT. Then when the edit is done you can recapture what's needed at full resolution and render it out. Alot of folks do this but I've never really had the need to so I don't know much about this workflow. Seems pretty straight forward though.
