• If you’ll be rendering audio, set the audio sample rate to 48 kHz and the
sample size to 16-bit (mono or stereo).

Note
Before rendering a lot of material, check that your rendered animations
and transitions such as wipes and slides play back smoothly. If they appear
jumpy, try adjusting the field dominance or field order for your rendered material.
For example, if your transitions appear jumpy with the field dominance set to
Odd field
jumpy, try adjusting the field dominance or field order for your rendered material.
For example, if your transitions appear jumpy with the field dominance set to
Odd field
or Field 1, try switching the setting to Even field or Field 2.
