Audio and Video Preview players

It is possible to preview Video, Audio, Image and RoughCut Edit's project entries directly from the Details Area. The preview players are controlled using the standard Play, Pause and Stop buttons.

Audio playback

There are two players offering audio playback feature. The default is EAO Audio Prelisten Player and recorder.

Audio Player

The audio pre-listen player allows you to pre-listen any audio format within your web browser.
