Player - Video

  • Number Buffers - This can adjust the number of memory buffers used for playback

  • Default View Sets the default display resolution for video or image files in the playback window.

  • Playback Queue Controls the number of frames preloaded into memory before playback begins, affecting playback smoothness and responsiveness.

  • Swap Interval Determines whether frame updates are synchronized with the vertical blanking interval (V-Sync) to prevent screen tearing during playback.

  • Drop Frames for Sync Controls how aggressively Tin Man will drop frames to maintain audio/video synchronization during playback.

  • Clock Selects the timing source used to regulate playback speed and maintain accurate timing.

  • Use GPU Buffers When Able Enables storage of RAW video frames directly on the GPU for faster playback performance when supported.

  • Prefer CUDA (Windows Only) Use NVIDIA CUDA GPU acceleration for ARRIRAW, Blackmagic RAW, Canon RAW, CinemaDNG, and RED RAW formats. When unchecked OpenCL is used - requires app restart.

  • Hide on Deactivate (2nd Display – macOS, Pro Version Only) When enabled, the Second Display Window will automatically hide when Tin Man is no longer the active application and reappear when it becomes active again.

    Note: This does not affect the Second Display when it is in full-screen mode.
