Banks
Banks provide a versatile space for managing media. They can be reordered, renamed, and imported or exported to use in other projects.
The Banks area can be displayed in two views: Table or Grid.
Table View
Table View gives more information about video / audio codecs, resolution, whether hardware acceleration is available on the media and much more.
Users can playback elements using the button and preview elements with the Preview button.
Grid View
Grid View allows for easier triggering of clips due to the larger trigger area, thumbnails are shown here and are also stored on the Prism Media Cache.
Pressing the + button will add a new Bank, each with its own
