Comparing settings using the Settings Viewer

Premiere stores settings for projects and clips, as well as settings used when you export or capture files. To make it easier to see and compare settings, Premiere displays all settings together in the Settings Viewer window. Settings that do not match display in red. Avoid potential conflicts by matching settings for each of the four categories wherever possible. You can change Capture, Project, and Export settings by clicking the associated setting heading in the Settings Viewer window.

To view, compare, and adjust settings in the Settings Viewer:

1 Choose Project > Settings Viewer.

2 Compare settings and ensure that they are the same in each category. Settings that do not match are red.

3 To view the settings for different clips in your project, select a clip from the clip heading, which is also a pop-up menu.

4 To change a setting, click the setting's heading (for example, click Project Settings), locate the setting in the dialog box that appears (you may need to navigate to different panels within a dialog box), change the setting, and then click OK.

5 Click OK when you are done comparing settings.
