Can I preview in Media Encoder??

I'm pretty sure that you used to be able to preview your content in Media Encoder but I can't seem to be able to do that now.
So I can select a range to be exported but I can't actually watch what my selection is!

Is that really the case? How am I supposed to select the bit I want to export based on the audio?
Or simply know exactly what I'm exporting?

 

Why isn't there a play button in the export settings window???????

The play button is in the Source tab of the Export Settings window. You're probably looking at the Output tab. To switch tabs, go to the top-left of the window.

In our latest update AME 24.2.1 you are now able to play back video and audio in the source tab. You can also set in and out points, select the whole sequence, review your batch item, etc. 

Furthermore, in public beta we have now introduced a third tab, combining the source and output tab. It is called compare view and lets you easily check the output frame compared to the source. Hope that helps!
