realtime or not is not software dependent. you wont get realtime without a special accleration card installed. neither on mac nor on pc. |

yea... as far as i know, there's no such thing as a totally real-time editing system. effects and titles need to be rendered on all programs i know of (even avid).
ah, well, this may be my last post here.------------------

i know that the final dv output always needs to be rendered , but as far as previewing titles and transitions is it realtime? as of right now im using vegas video and i can see all my titles and transitions in realtime , with out rendering them first (like in premiere)...- eddie - |

you can never see them in realtime as they will appear in the video. ESPECIALLY not with a consumer product like vegas. you CAN see it in low res in realtime, but that is not what i call realtime nle. |

Look at Apple's site!
It is realtime with hardware acceleration as stated above. http://www.apple.com/finalcutpro/ |
