Preview Generation

Preview generation is time consuming for the computer.

Viewing previews after a session allows the computer to work faster. Enter the Camera Menu and select Generate Previews to uncheck it (hide the check mark). To enable preview generation select Generate Previews again and the check mark becomes visible. To generate the missing previews click on the Refresh button in the capture collection window (a folder shown with a “*”).

Disabling preview generation on older Macintosh computers enhances capture rates, whereas as on newer models the capture rate difference is barely noticeable.
