Change settings on preview monitor

am working in uk,
is there anyway i can make the preview monitor match 50 cycles as on playback to picture is difficult to judge because monitor seem to be on 60 cycles and picture looks like old fashion standard conversion

Hold on. Are you talking about the preview window in FCP's Log & Capture or an externally connected monitor?
If it is the former, FCP has setups for PAL and NTSC. You simply choose one that suits the format that you are working in.
Do not judge the quality of your video by the preview window. It is a low res proxy meant as a general guide to show what you are currently capturing. Depending on the codec and capabilities of the computer, it might not even display at the material's native frame rate.

    No, nothing will prevent the computer from going to sleep when you close its display except third-party hacks that are designed to do exactly that. I strongly advise against using any of those, as they may interfere with successful entry into clamshell mode (and they carry other downside risks as well). Just wait until the computer is asleep (with its sleep light pulsing), then press any key on the keyboard. It sounds as though your setup is working as it's designed to do.

  • Video playback in preview monitors appears as a jagged mess

    Video playback in the preview monitors appears as a jagged mess. The audio plays perfectly. I am using Premiere Pro CS4 4.2.1, only DV NTSC. I have checked all my settings, have found nothing that will fix this. What could be causing this problem?

    IF you have an nVidia card...
    Right click in any open area of the Windows desktop
    Select NVIDIA Control Panel from the popup window

  • Preview monitor playback 'sticks' with certain types of footage.

    Hi there, I wonder if anyone could help me with this problem.
    I am going through a Apple certified FCP training book with a DVD of footage for video editing. I a have copied the footage onto my hard drive as recomended. However, some clips will not play back with any motion through my preview T.V, it just sticks and parks wherever your playhead was before the footage began or once stopped. You can watch it back fine in the canvas on FCP obviosly, but the preview monitor is sticking and not playing along with it?
    The training footage is set correctly because it configures your FCP to match the settings that the author was using.
    My settings seem fine for standard DV editing as I loaded up some of my old Mini DV quicktime footage and it runs in FCP and through my T.V monitor in real time with the canvas/timeline. However I have DVCAM video footage to edit soon and when I also try to play it this also sticks on the preview T.V and doesn't follow the canvas until you stop playing and then it lands on the frame that i am parked on.
    I imagine its my settings more than anything, I dont see how playing around with standard mini DV footage in the canvas is fine with the preview T.V and and not the DVCAM footage?
    I am going out the mac via firewire into a Datavideo AD converter which in turn is going to the preview T.V via S-Video, with the audio phono into an amp. Like I say, works a treat with standard DV footage.
    Thanks for your time and hope you can help me!

    #8 External Monitor Viewing.
    Shane's Stock Answer #8:
    A simple path is mac > firewire > camera or deck > rca cables > tv
    Then start up your camera and tv, then open fcp.
    Then go View > External video > all frames
    Video playback should be Apple firewire NTSC (If you are using an NTSC set)
    Audio playback should be Audio follows Video
    Techinially, this should send synched video to your TV
    If for some reason you can't view your timeline on your external monitor, there are a few things to try:
    1) Make sure that the camera/deck is connected and powered on BEFORE you open FCP.
    2) In the Final Cut Pro menu select AUDIO/VIDEO Preferences and make sure your signal is being sent out thru Firewire DV.
    3) Go to the menu and select VIEW>EXTERNAL>ALL FRAMES.
    4) Click in the % box above the image and select FIT TO WINDOW.
    5) Go to VIEW->refresh A/V devices
    6) Make sure the Log & Capture window is closed
    If you want it to play in both the canvas and the external monitor you need to go to the FINAL CUT PRO menu and select AUDIO/VIDIO settings and make sure MIRROR ON DESKTOP is selected under the PLAYBACK OUTPUT section

  • Preview monitor suddenly stopped working and disappeared

    In the middle of my edit, clips refused to play and my separate external preview monitor blinked back to the desktop.
    Now, even after a restart, importing into a new project, reconnecting and disconnecting equipment, I can't get the second monitor option to reappear in my Playback settings window. Where did it go?

    How is this Separate External Preview Monitor connected?
    - Computer Monitor via Video Card?
    - NTSC Monitor via MATROX, BlackMagic, AJA?
    - Mental Telepathy?
    Window > Source Monitor
    (Shift +F2)

    - check/uncheck Desktop Video Display During Playback
    - set External Device

    What is the exact model of PC you have?
    What model is the monitor?
    It sounds like the PC is trying to transmit the video at a resolution greater than what the monitor can support.

  • Preview Monitor?

    So on my pc I have Adobe Premiere Pro CS3 and I have the preview play in the canvas and on a preview monitor at the same time. I am trying to do the same thing on my mac pro. I want final cut to preview to my canvas and preview monitor at the same time just like I have in Premiere. I have an iLink cable from the mac pro to a HVRM15 and from there component cables to the hdtv. How do I set final cut to output a preview to this monitor?
    Thanks

    Shane's Stock Answer #8: External Monitor Viewing
    If you are working with DV, this is simple. First connect your computer to a camera or deck via firewire, Then connect the camera/deck to your TV/monitor via RCA or S-Video.
    Then start up your camera and TV, then open FCP.
    Go to the View Menu, choose > External Video > All Frames
    VIEW>Video Playback should be “Apple Firewire NTSC” (If you are using an NTSC set)
    VIEW>Audio playback should be “Audio follows Video”
    Technically, this should send synched video to your TV
    If for some reason you can't view your timeline on your external monitor, there are a few things to try:
    1) Make sure that the camera/deck is connected and powered on BEFORE you open FCP.
    2) In the Final Cut Pro menu select AUDIO/VIDEO Preferences and make sure your signal is being sent out thru Firewire DV.
    3) Go to the menu and select VIEW>EXTERNAL>ALL FRAMES.
    4) Click in the % box above the image and select FIT TO WINDOW.
    5) Go to VIEW->refresh A/V devices
    6) Make sure the Log & Capture window is closed
    If you want it to play in both the canvas and the external monitor you need to go to the FINAL CUT PRO menu and select AUDIO/VIDIO settings and make sure MIRROR ON DESKTOP is selected under the A/V DEVICES tab.
    If you are working with HDV footage, FCP 6 allows you to view this via firewire, but ONLY as downconverted DV. It won't look the best, but you can see it. To do this,
    If you need to view any format other than DV at full resolution, then you need to look into capture cards. Several standard definition and high definition models are available from www.aja.com and www.decklink.com. With these options you'll need a proper monitor to view full broadcast colors, but all models allow for realtime standard definition downconvert, allowing you to view HD on an SD monitor.
    The Matrox MXO is another option that is output only, but allows you to view your footage on an Apple Cinema Display at full broadcast quality.

  • Preview Monitor Jitter

    I have been editing all day just fine and then all of a sudden I have a jitter in my preview monitor. It is just a slight jitter up and down but nevertheless irratating. I have a Kona card that is going to my beta deck and then svideo out to my monitor. I haven't changed anything and the canvas preview is just fine. Does anyone have a answer or suggestion?

    It is jittering as it plays as well as when it is stopped. This is a project that I have been working on for 2 weeks without a problem until now. The footage is all dv.

  • Preview monitor problem

    Hello, so I have an issue with preview monitor in Premiere Elements 10.
    Video I am editing only shows when I click into the monitor, If I want to play the whole thing than the frame is frozen and audio plays fine.
    I've reinstalled everything to double check, even OS Win7. Problem still exists. This makes the editing just not possible.
    This problem is aslo happening with all video formats(avi,mp4,mov,png, even jpg). The only thig that seems to work is content generated within premiere(bars,titles,color backgrounds).
    Thanks for any help.

    Karandeep
    I did not write the "same" thing. Let me explain.
    I cannot explain how protomace found your "preferences" directions and what was found. But, you are not going to find the Premiere Elements settings file (aka preferences) by the route that you posted. For the advantage of this user and others reading this thread, I thought it important to call attention to this.
    Specifically
    1. You wrote
    Go to below mentioned location and reset the folder named as 10.0 and try to launch premier elements
    c:\Users\[username]\AppData\Roaming\Adobe\Premiere Elements 10.0/10.0
    There is no Premiere Elements 10.0 Folder in the correct route.
    In that Adobe Folder in that above path, there is a folder named Premiere Elements 10.0 which also contains a 10.0 Folder, but that is not where you want to be if you are interested in settings file (aka preferences).
    2. I thought that you might want the opportunity to be more specific for the benefit of this user and others who might read your post(s).
    a. "reset" was not defined by you
    b. other as per my post 5.
    Thanks for the opportunity to clarify these points for you.
    Please do not hesitate to ask if you have further questions on this. Please double check the path that you cited versus the one that I did and compare. With the path that you gave, I think that you would end up with a Trace Database.txt file. How were you planning on resetting preferences from that?
    Thank you.

  • Sequence Settings Video Previews and GPU?

    Dear PrP CC Users,
    I wanted to get some information partaining to sequence settings.
    In the bottom box of Sequence Settings: Video Previews. There are three un/tick boxes:
    Maximum Bit Depth
    Maximum Render Quality
    Composite In Linear Color (requires GPU acceleration or max render quality)
    Normally I tick all of them. I have a Windforce GTX 770 4GB CUDA mercury engine enabled. I have also set to Optimise rendering for: Performance.
    My questions are as follows.
    -Do these selections effect the final output of a timeline for delivery or is it merely for during regular playback and preview rendering?
    -Also, when I export using Media Encoder through dynamic link, is it bad to Use Previews for a faster export, often I export to ProRes4444 for Grading, I heard that Preview files will always differ as its created by the GPU and can slightly change the colours dependent on the GPU you have, thus is it better to export and allow it to re-render using the CPU in Media Encoder (I always set maximum bit depth and quality)?
    -Lastly, in the export process, when I select Maximum Bit Depth, there are options of the bit depth value (32, 48, 64) does this become redundant since I checked maximum bit depth?
    Thank you.

    The first two boxes only affect previews.  The same boxes in the Export Settings dialog will override those and determine the output.
    Using previews for export is generally not a good idea, as doing so will incur an additional compression step.  The exception is when the previews are lossless (or nearly so, as with DNxHD).
    Not working with ProRes, I've never seen those options.

  • Multiple Settings for One Monitor

    I have my monitor set to the way I like it, it shows colors accurately and not overly bright (white doesn't blind me). However I edit photos for the web in PS and this is great for my screen but I have noticed when looking at other screens my photos will at times looked washed out and not a good presentation. If I manually change my monitor settings to be brighter (and a few other tweaks) I can replicate the look of other monitors close enough to help prevent washed out/blown out photos. Here is the issue, I need to be able to change settings between the two fairly easily. To manually set my monitor for one then back to the other can be time consuming and a pain to set right every time.
    I would like to be able to preset certain settings (in software) that I can quickly switch between by pressing hotkeys or clicking shortcut on my desktop. I have an AMD video card and have attempted to use the AMD VISION Engine Control Center to add presets then tweak the settings for each. However when I switch between the presets the settings are the same.
    How do I build presets using the VISION Engine Control Center that actually works (maybe I misunderstand what it is saving?) or is there a way to do this in Windows 7 or free software that actually works decently for this purpose?
    Note: I post this here as I assume someone here has done this or seen soemthing like this.
    Thanks!

    Hi,
    Why not to use a event based monitor to detect the Task Schedule running status? I am not familar with VB script, the suggestion I can give is you need to check if the script cannot properly detect the running result of the task Schedule.

    Hi,
    When you set your monitor to a screen resolution that it won't support, the screen will go black for a few seconds while the monitor reverts back to the original resolution.
    Regarding screen resolution, we may follow the below two articles to change it:
    Change your screen resolution
    Getting the best display on your monitor
    Follow the steps below:
    1. Open Screen Resolution by clicking the Start button, clicking
    Control Panel, and then, under Appearance and Personalization, clicking Adjust screen resolution.
    2.Click the drop-down list next to Resolution. Check for the resolution marked (recommended). This is your LCD monitor's native resolution—usually the highest resolution your monitor can support.
    And if the monitor is LCD monitor, The monitor's  manufacturer or reseller should also be able to tell you the native resolution for your LCD monitor.  Or we may check the monitor's manual to adjust.
    Best regards
