Jagged Images in Slideshow

When I create a slideshow un Video Studio, and play it
back within the editor, the images are "jagged". However when I export
to Mpeg, the resulting file looks fine. Why does the slideshow look
jagged when playing back inside of the editor? Is there any way to fix
this?

Thanks,

Are your Preferences set for Instant Playback? If so, and the rendered file looks fine, then it could just be a result of the low quality playback. Setting your Preferences to High Quality playback will give you a better representation of your project, but it will also take longer as it renders a temp file.

I am set for Instant Playback - and the rendered file looks fine. Also viewing AVI & MPG files look okay in the editor too - it's just the project files that look jagged upon playback. I hate to ask a stupid question, where can I find the setting for higher-quality playback? I dug pretty deep, but could'nt find that setting. I am using an older version (I don't have the version number handy as I am at work now, and the software is installed at home - but it's about 2 years old).

Thank you
