'scaler' actor, resize video to any size you want.
Paired with the 'Get Stage Size' and calculator, you can scale to a percent of the final output size.

Hello dusx,

Thank you for your answer.

Maybe I'm wrong, but lowered scale video seems to still be processed has a full HD one..

My fps is lower.

Is really scale actor useful to lower resources consumption?

@webmammuth

How many Stages are you using?

@webmammuth

Why don't you use the stage preview?

@woland hello,

Thank you, I Use 3 stages.

One is for previewing.

[Michel]

@webmammuth

I mean the one in the control window

@michel

I used to. But the floating windows does the same job with less resources.

@webmammuth

Even if you lower the refresh rate of the stage preview to 12 or even 1? You don't need it high for a preview.

@michel

The preview in controls need to open a floating window or an output on a projector. Am I wrong?

If so it works in full frame rate anyway.

@webmammuth

If you double click the "Stage Preview" in controls in edit mode you can set the refresh rate in the settings window.

For any users reading this in the future this is the setting:

@skulpture

OK.

But since the scene must be activated, it needs a full processing even if the framerate is lowered? Am I Wrong?

Or is it possible to view this preview without activating the scene itself?
