Plus! DME Transitions

(I guess I could just try this and see what happens, but I thought I would
try to save some time and ask the question here first....)

I've been using MM2 (Plus! DME installed) with no problems . I've been
working on a video that I am going to end up putting back on DV tape. My
final video will be two video of about 45 minutes each (I have to do this so
that I can get all 90 minutes of video onto a VHS tape). Right now I only
have about 5 minutes of video on my story board. I've noticed that when I
drag a DME transition and play the transition in the preview, it looks
jerky/dropped frames. When I add some non-DME transitions, the same thing
happens. Then there are some transitions I add that play smoothly when I
add them.

What I'm wondering is, if I left the transitions that are jerky, when I save
my final project, will they be jerky too, or is there a chance it will play
smoothly??

Thanks for any and all responses,
stefan

Stefan,

I would expect the final saved movie to play smoothly. The preview is in
real time and things have to drop as needed to view it that quickly. The
rendering will take whatever time it needs to produced the movie file.
