Player Settings preferences

In the Player Settings pane of the Preferences dialog box, you can select the default player. Adobe Premiere Pro uses the player to play media from clips and sequences for the following:
  • Source Monitor

  • Program Monitor

  • the preview area at the top of the Project panel

  • Trim Monitor

  • Multi-Camera Monitor

  • the video transition preview in the Effect Controls panel.

You can choose the default player for your computer, or a third-party plug-in player for Adobe Premiere Pro. Third-party players are installed with some capture cards.
