In the Timeline Editor, the playback sync menu offers 3 options for previewing an animation:
- “No Sync” — preview every frame, no matter how long it takes
- “AV-sync” — try to preview at the correct animation speed, dropping frames as necessary to keep up
- “Frame Dropping” — seems to be somewhere in-between the other two.
Can someone explain to me exactly what “Frame Dropping” is for? It neither shows you all the frames, nor maintains accurate animation speed. What is the point of doing neither?
