Iโm having a brain fart. What is the setting that backs off the quality a bit for editing speed?
You mean these ?
Introduction
Proxy editing is the process of creating and using low resolution videos and images in places of the original or optimized (Convert to Edit-friendly) files. This provides the advantage that your computer has less work to do in realtime while editing: decoding, scaling, and effects. This is, quite simply, because there are less pixels to compute. Then, when you are ready to export, it will use the original (or optimized) files for full quality.

The Preview Scaling setting may be used to reduce the resolution of video processing when you are using a fair amount of filters, transitions, and track blending. This may help with the performance during the editing process.

However, keep in mind that the source video or images must typically be scaled down to the designed preview scale, and that will have a processing cost. See Proxy Editing for the remedy to that. Proxy generates substitute clips at the same resolution as preview scโฆ
You can use one or the other, or both to make previews more fluid while editing.
It results in a decrease of image quality in previews, but doesnโt affect quality of exported files.

Thank you. I didnโt know it was 2 separate things.

Interpolation is the computation of values based on neighboring values. It easiest to think of this as the quality level of scaling - or changing the size of an image - but it also affects things like positioning and rotation. It is also called sub-pixel rendering because it gives the impression of positioning between actual pixels.
This settings appears in the Player category of Settings because this only affects preview. There is a separate interpolation option in Export > Advanced > Video.
