can anyone tell me how i can view my effects in real time without rendering first? i am using vegas 5 and when i select a certain clips to be black and white (or any effect plugin for that matter) i cannot see what it looks like until after i render it. i know there must be a setting to change this but i cannot locate it! thanks for your help anyone,

Do you by any chance have split screen view enabled and set to the full window? This would show you a preview before effects have been applied.

thanks,

i will try that, not sure if that is checked or not...

no, it is not checked. i have just the main view, i do not know where that setting is, so i assume it has not been checked, where is that option?

Just above the preview screen is a series of buttons. One of them is the "Split Screen View" button. Make sure that is NOT active.
