can't view my video in real time when editing

[cmckernan93]

Hello,

need help/advice

New to premier pro

when i made the below clip i used a Advent calendar door tempalte from Adboe stock and added in prodcuts below in jpeg for mwith transitons - however i can't see the video in real time when i am playing it in premier pro - it keeps freezing and not playing (but not giving an error)

link to the tempalte - Advent Calendar Reveal Title Stock Template | Adobe Stock

any idea how to fix so i can edit in real time again as i'm editing blind at the minute

I also need to speed up the export process as it is taking hours to do a 2 minute video

any help welcome please and i'm happy to learn - for info my laptop is below

HP Pavilion Gaming Laptop - 17-cd1014na

If you want to see this in real time you need to render the timeline first.

Red, yellow, and green render bars and what they mean « Premiere Pro work area

I rendered it down and it took a while but is now playing ok, so when i export now how do i get it to go quiker when exporting, is this where the match sequence settings come in? by the way i want to export in HD 1080p if possible in WMV format

Just pick a Youtube preset and you will be ok.
