Time Code displayed on an External Monitor? Is this possible?

I'm sure this is a dumb question, but is there a way to view your FC time code on your footage through your external monitor? I selected the show time code overlays from the viewer but it only shows up on the monitor on the computer screen and then goes a way when you play a clip. Is there something I’m missing that will allow me to watch the time code on playback, and on an external monitor? Thanks.

This will allow you to have TC display on one of your computer monitors. You cannot have it display on an external monitor...not on any NLE I know of. Not unless you are outputting to a deck and you have TC on the deck (the SUPER out on the back) routed to the monitor.

  • HT5019 MacPro laptop display and 2 external monitors (three displays). Can I have more than one application displayed at a time?

    I would like to have my MacPro laptop display and 2 external monitors (three displays). Question, how can I have more than one application displayed at a time? IE: I would like email on one monitor, Finder on my laptop, and iTunes on the other. Possible?
    With extended desktop, it appears that I can only have one application presenting at a time. Sort of defeats the purpose of having multiple displays.
    I am using the HDMI and the mini HDMI connectors.

  • Is it possible to use the iMac display as en external monitor?

    I want to connect my powerbook up to an iMac using the display as an external monitor for the laptop. Is this even possible? Any feedback would be appreciated.

    Hello,
    I've seen this post at least a hundred times. Has
    anyone actually had the gusto to try this idea?
    I don't remember where the page was. But, I posted it's link several months ago in the forums during another discussion.
    But, the guy who had done it to his iMac G3 had very poorly documented his conversion.
    Basically, he took and wired signal to same signal on the monitor, and adapted his power supply and other items to work properly in the modified setup.
    So, it is possible. You just need to sit down with the schematics and wire signal to same signal, and make sure you account for all the variables. It may take some resistors, etc. to get the adaptation just right.
    I don't have any reason to do it myself, so I'm not going to tinker with it.
    If I remembered the link, I'd post it. But, it wouldn't do much good anyway since his HTML formatting was severely messed-up. The end-result was accurate information that was scrambled around on the screen in such a way that you couldn't decipher it anyway. If he had done the HTML work properly, it would be in a formatted table. But, instead the information was scattered all over the screen in an illogical format. So, it wasn't of much real use.

  • Can I get mirrored displays on my external monitors?

    So I've got a small recording studio and I just got two monitors for free and want to get them working with my Macbook Pro. I know that if I want 3 independent screens, I'll have to get an external box like the Diamond BVU195. So in lieu of doing that, I thought I'd just get a VGA splitter (run into a VGA to mini adaptor into the macbook), so both of the monitors would display the same thing (There's two seats in the studio, that way both people could easily look at the same thing). Is this possible? I've been told it is, but I can't get it to work. When I plug both monitors into the splitter, the left one doesn't flinch, and the right one goes black and gives me an error "Out of range of signal. Cannot display this video mode. Change computer display input to 1600x1200 @ 60 Hz". Neither 1600x1200 nor 60 Hz are valid options for me to change to, and clicking the mirroring option in the display settings only makes the right screen and my macbook screen identical. I'd like the macbook screen independent of the two external screens. Any ideas?

    No, no 15" MBP screen is capable of 1920 x 1080 or 1920 x 1200 resolution. To get higher resolution on your external monitor than on your built-in display, put the external monitor into Extended Desktop mode instead of Mirrored mode. Then you can set their resolutions separately and use each at its maximum resolution. To toggle between E.D. and Mirrored, press Command + F1.

  • How to display 2560x1080 on external monitor from MBP or MBA?

    Is there any way to make MBP 17 (Intel HD and nVidia GT graphics, SnowLeo) or MBA 13 (Mountain Lion) display 2560x1080 on external monitor (LG 29" ultrawide)? My MacPro with RadeonX1900 card (10.5.8) does it perfectly but I cannot find a way to get the laptops to do it. Tried res. switching apps, still no good. Thanks.

    It worked perfect for me. Maybe settings should be different for your laptops. In my case I'm using a MBP 15" with a GeForce 330M.
    The monitor I have is the LG 29EA93 (21:9) @ 2560 x 1080.
    Make sure you have exactly same values in Switch Res X. Special attention to "Scan rate".
    You can see in the capture below that it's working
    and, just in case, here you have the settings that worked for me
    It might be also different for each video card...

  • Can Macbook Pro 15" Retina (Early 2013) with Mavericks display HIDPI on external monitor?

    Can Macbook Pro 15" Retina (Early 2013) with Mavericks display HIDPI on external monitor?

    you cant return it unless you have had it for 14 days or less, but you can bring it to an Apple store or AASP for warranty service.

  • White screen, but you could get the display via an external monitor.

    Hi,
    A few weeks ago, my Macbook pro(A1212) stopped displaying. It only showed a white screen, but you could get the display via an external monitor. A friend looked at it and we discovered a burnt Mosfet (SI3443DV) which was item Q9400 on the motherboard. He went and changed it but it only displayed for less than 5 minutes and it went back to the white screen. would you please advice on what to do since i am not in a financial position to take it for repairs at the apple store?
    Joe

    Forget it.
    1: If it was tampered with, then it doesn't qualify for warranty or AppleCare.
    2: Repairing it will incur a new expensive logicboard, because that's how they do things. Swap parts out.
    3: No money, means no Mac.
    Sorry. We don't do hardware repairs here.

  • Can Time Capsule be used as a time machine on a Windows Server.  Is this possible, and how do i configure this?

    I like to use the new TC in my office as a time machine on a Windows Server.  Is this possible, and how do i configure this?
    In fact my plan is to make the first back up by connecting to the server via an ethernet cable, but thereafter i like to bring the TC to my home and perform the incremental backups over the internet.  This is for safety reasons, in case for example the office is broken into, or flooded, or fire (god forbid).
    I sincerely hope it is possible, and not complicated.
    Alternatively i would not mind replacing our current Windows server 2003 with an Apple server, but all computers in the network (except mine) are Windows 7 or 8. Would it work?
    Thanks in advance.
    Paris

    I will consider the WD My Cloud device.
    It is a NAS.. it is designed to provide a cheap centralised file storage.
    What is NAS?? http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Network-attached_storage
    A file server like windows uses heaps of power to do very little.. in your setup.. In most setups like SBS it will do exchange server and provide a heap of useful connectivity to your clients.
    Since you are not using the windows server in anything but simple file serving you can replace with a NAS..
    Problem with the TC is, it is a router with a hard disk inside.. designed specifically for Time Machine.. it fails to provide what a NAS does.. easy access to any clients, local or remote.. TC is designed by apple for apple and the rest of world is not really invited to the party.
    It provides no backup.. no data protection.. and is so specifically apple orientated I do not think it works at all well with windows.
    For a simple example.. windows will have file issues with large files.. because it is only NTserver FAT32 to windows.. bad luck if you have large files.. !!
    Plainly if you use active directory in windows that facility is gone.
    I just like Apple products, find them more stable than Windows and easier to use.  Plus i can access the server from home if it is an Apple Server.
    If you only need remote access for yourself that is fine.. too bad for the windows clients I guess.
    Or you open it up to the world and bad luck for security.
    Apple do not design for mixed environment.. in fact with the TC there is no provision for windows access officially at all.. so anything you do is a fudge.
    You can use the TC for your Mac backups within the network.. that is fine. Apple provide no software at all to help with your windows clients.

  • Upgraded to Yosemite and Windows 8.1 Pro in Bootcamp, can no longer drive retina display and two external monitors simultaneously?

    Greetings
    I just upgraded from Mountain Lion and Windows 7 Ultimate (Bootcamp) to Yosemite and Windows 8.1 Pro on a late 2012 MBP 13" Retina. Prior to the upgrades, I was able to drive the retina panel and two external monitors simultaneously when operating directly in Bootcamp. Now, I can only drive 2 of the 3 simultaneously though all three are recognized under Graphic Properties. I simply cannot find any option or profile under Graphics Properties or Options or Personalization to run all three screens.
    My hardware hasn't changed and this worked prior to the updates. I have no issue on the Mac OSX can run all three. I also have no issue doing it in Windows under Parallels Desktop 10. It is just when I boot directly into Bootcamp that this happens. What am I missing?
    Thanks,
    G.

    Great point, Loner T.  It was late when I was working and I thought about this afterwards also.
    The issue was that in Windows=>Control Panel=>Display, under "Change Display Settings", the three screens showed but "Extend Display"  was not selected for one of the screens. It was simply off. I can't believe I danced around this w/o picking it up sooner. In fact, it has happened in the past that for some reason a display loses this setting.
    As an aside, thanks again for all of your help and terrific input to upgrade both the Mac and Windows operating systems. As I was going from Windows 7 Ultimate to Windows 8.1 Pro, one thing I did come across that made life much easier was to upgrade first to Windows 8 so I could keep my apps. The jump from 7 to 8.1 would otherwise migrate my personal files, but not programs and require a lot of time to reinstall all. This was completely avoided by going to Windows 8 first.
    Thanks, again, and very much appreciate the work that you do here.
    Best,
    G.

  • T400 Images Not Displaying Correctly On External Monitor

    One of our users has a T400 laptop (6475-FM4) with Windows XP Professional installed on it.  He has an external monitor that he has plugged in to his laptop which he is using to extend his desktop.
    If you open up a document (say Word or Excel) that contains images and view it on the laptops screen you can scroll up and down the document and the images are displayed OK.
    If you open the document on the external screen then the images are displayed when you first open it, but as soon as you scroll up or down all you can see are the place holders for the images.  If you move the document back to the built-in screen they display correctly.
    What have I done so far?
    I have updated the Chipset drivers and the actual Graphics/Video drivers and the issue is still the same.
    I have tried turning down the Hardware Acceleration but that did not resolve the problem.
    I've made sure that the Field codes option in Word is not ticked (suggestion found via Google)
    I've made sure that the Picture placeholders option is not ticked in Word (again found on Google)
    I've searched the internet for other possible solutions and can not find any.
    HELP!

    one more point to add...i installed windows using bootcamp, and through windows the 2560X1440 resolution works. so its not a hardware problem either

  • PB display flickers, but external monitor still OK

    Hi all,
    I've just bought a faulty powerbook to see if i can fix it. It's a G4 15" 1Ghz Titanium DVI. The fault is that the powerbook display frequently becomes corrupted. it's actually a beautiful effect, but not very practical! Every few moments, minutes sometimes, the display looks as if deep colours are gradualy bleeding accross it, until it becomes unreadable. the effect is sometimes psycedelic and sometimes textured like oil on canvas!
    Anyway, simply moving the angle of the display a little clears the screen and everything's visible again. At no time does the system crash or anything; if there's an external monitor conected in Display Mirroring or Extended Desktop mode it doesn't show any artifacts and continues to work perfectly. It's only the powerbook's own display that exhibits the fault.
    i'm presuming therefore that the logic board is OK but that there is a loose connection somewhere (where I don't know!). Could it be the invertor board however?
    does this all sound familiar to anyone?
    thanks!
    TiBook 1Ghz (DVI)   Mac OS X (10.3.9)   9600/350

    Hi, efunc. If your situation is such that you could happily use the Powerbook as a very compact desktop computer with its built-in display closed and an external monitor, keyboard and mouse connected, you might be able to do so for a long time without fixing anything at all.
    If you really want to use the Powerbook as a portable, you'll have to crawl inside and look around for the trouble. The fact that changing the built-in display's angle clears the problem suggests strongly that the cause is in one of the very thin, fragile cables that pass through the display hinges. These can become pinched or abraded in the very narrow passageway there (especially if the hinges are fatigued and begining to break), leading to faulty insulation and short circuits or even severed cables. There is very little room there to make any repairs, if that's the case, and cable damage is not always easy to see. Replacing the cables, one end of which is sealed inside the display bezel, is essentially impossible. A professional technician, when faced with bad display cables, replaces the entire display instead of trying to pry the bezel apart.
    Because the cables are so thin, flexible and delicate, the motion of the display being opened, closed and adjusted is, in itself, very unlikely to loosen (or tighten) any of the cables' connections inside the body of the Powerbook. But a loose connection there is possible, and it wouldn't hurt to check. Complete disassembly instructions are here, and will show you where the display cable connections are located.
    If you don't find a bad connection, the inverter board is the least expensive part you could replace in the hope of solving the problem. But I doubt that adjusting the screen angle would "fix" (even temporarily) a problem caused by a bad inverter, so I suspect that isn't where the fault lies.
    Good luck.
    EDIT: Oh, dear — I just realized that you're the very same efunc who reports a whole different set of problems with his used 1GHz Tibook in a different thread. If all those problems are occurring in the same Tibook as the display problems discussed in this thread, most of what I've said above is out the window, and the source of all the problems could be anywhere, including the logic board, or even multiple sources.
    My comments above were based on the assumption that the problem you reported in this thread was the only one you were having with the affected machine. If that assumption is wrong, disregard them.

  • Late 2010 MBP WIll No Longer Display 1080p for External Monitor

    I currently use my 15" 2010 MacBook Pro with an external monitor via an HDMI cable using the Moshi HDMI miniport adapter. Recently when I connect the monitor (I've also tested on a different HDTV and have had the same issue) it recognizes a signal but all it displays is black. Only when I change the signal to 1080i do I get a picture (a poor quality picture). Is there any fix for this? At this point I'm thinking that it's either the adapter or the MBP's hardware that is messed up. I have been using this HDMI adapter without issue since the summer.
    Any help would be appreciated.

  • Display resolution on external monitor

    I have purchased a MacBook Pro 17" and happy with the high screen resolution using it as a laptop. Successfully making my Windows desktop obsolete :-), has left me with a nice Dell 30" monitor (which have been running very high resolutions on using Windows).
    I have connected the MacBook Pro 17 via Apple Mini DisplayPort to DVI Adapter and can fine chose between mirror the display or using two display mode. The MacBook Pro also detect the screen fine. But I can't get the resolution on the external monitor higher than 1280X800???? If I use the setup without mirroring, the Mac's own display fine shows 19xx x something, while not displaying an similar high resolution option for the external monitor.
    What do I do wrong?
    Best regards,
    Torben

    You need a dual-link DVI cable to get higher resolutions.

  • How do i get the slideshow to display on my external monitor in extended view with powerpoint?

    i have my T500 (windows 7) connected to a large external monitor with extended view.  when i run powerpoint it displays the slideshow on my laptap screen instead of the external view.  how can i have the presenter view show on my laptop, and the slideshow show on the external monitor/projector?
    thanks!

    You can do it that way, (Clone) but everything you do on your laptop will also be displayed on the monitor.  
    Assuming you would like the display on the external and freedom to navigate on your laptop without broadcasting, you would need to adjust your slide show settings in PowerPoint.
    To use this procedure:
    In PowerPoint, On the Slide Show menu, click Set Up Show.
    Under Multiple monitors > Display slide show on drop down menu:   select the monitor you want the slide show to appear on.

  • Display only on external monitor with laptop open--possible?

    I have an external monitor (20" with resolution of 1680 x 1050) attached via DVI-D to my MacBook Pro 15". When I'm using it in this configuration, I like to only use my external monitor and not the built-in laptop display. The only way I can get this to work is to close the laptop screen and then wake up the computer using an externally attached (bluetooth, actually) keyboard.
    My question is, how can I do this and have my laptop screen open? Whenever the laptop screen is open, its built-in screen activates and I can either "mirror" the displays or have display spanning. Mirroring does not work well for me because the external monitor's native LCD resolution is 1680 x 1050 and the laptop is 14xx by something (I forget the number).
    Why do I want the screen to be open? Better airport and bluetooth reception. My external monitor is far away enough from the laptop that sometimes, the bluetooth mouse gets jittery when it tracks.
    Thanks for the help!

    How about turning the
    brightness on the MBP all the way down? Will that
    achieve what you want?
    Kryten
    Well, that means using monitor spanning. In that case, I could certainly make my external monitor the main display (thus, the one with the menu bar). The problem with monitor spanning in my situation is that it is possible windows and icons be mis-located to the laptop monitor. Because my two displays are not sitting side-by-side (they are at least 5 feet away from each other) this could get confusing.
