Video panel controls

All the different modules have some control over how video is played. The video panel controls for the Player module are shown below. Most modules will have some of these features although not all controls will always be available according to that module's specific needs.

The buttons have the following functions (from left to right):

Play/pause - becomes a pause button when the video is playing (keyboard shortcut: Space bar)

Stop - also returns to the start of the clip ([Shift] + S)

Step previous - back one frame ([Ctrl] + [left arrow])

Step next ([Ctrl] + [right arrow])

Previous clip - play the previous clip in the Tray ([Ctrl] + P).

Next clip ([Ctrl] + N).

Hit F11 on your keyboard to display the video in full screen. Use the keyboard shortcuts listed above to control the video playback.


Controlling speed

A wide variety of playback speeds can be selected using the speed control, shown below.


Clicking a number will position the speed cursor accordingly (e.g. 0.5). You can also click and drag the cursor to select a precise speed (e.g. 0.35 as illustrated above).


Moving the Playhead

You can directly move the Playhead to a new position. To do this:

1.	Stop or pause the video, if it is playing.

2.	Click anywhere in the pale blue area of the Timeline (or click and drag the Playhead left or right).
