Using the Submaster Effect with a Series of Short Clips
The Submaster effect is useful when you want to play back bandwidth-limited sequences, such as a sequence composed of a series of short clips (a few frames each). You can apply and render the Submaster effect above the clips to improve playback.

To apply the Submaster effect to multiple clips:
1.  Select Clip > New Video Track.
2.  On the new video track, use the Add Edit button in the Tool palette to create one add edit before and another after the group of clips.
For information on opening the Tool palette, see Using the Tool Palette.
3.  Open the Effect Palette by doing one of the following:
  In the Project window, click the Effects tab.
  Select Tools > Effect Palette.
4.  Click the Image category.
5.  Drag the Submaster Effect icon to the space between the add edits you added on the new track.
6.  Render the Submaster effect, as described in Rendering Effects.
  If you alter or move either the Submaster segment or the clips below it, the effect becomes unrendered. You must render it again.
