External Monitor Playback

I have an external monitor attached to my iMac.  (LED TV).  When I view playback on my iMac, the video is fit to the screen.  When I view my playback monitor tv.....the video is about 3/4 of the screen?  How do I make it full screen?Ext

  • External monitor playback not showing up ever since updating to the new CC 2014 app.

    Upon updating to the newest version of PProCC (2014), I have lost all ability to use my external monitor even though it is checked in my playback preferences.
    I need this monitor back up ASAP as it is my client monitor and without it I cannot do my job.
    In conclusion, I just want to add that this is just one of many issues I have been experiencing on the new 2014 app along with constant crashing and the occasional render artifacts/unwanted freeze frames in my preview files. Very buggy, very disappointing, very poor show adobe. Bad time to get rid of your PPro phone support team!

  • External Monitor Playback Problem

    Hey all,
    I recently updated my machine to FCS2. I've had all of my other editors on it since it came out, but I left my machine alone until I knew it was safe to have all of us going on the new system.
    Everything is fine with the software, but I can't get my external monitor to play back in real time. I'm going through a JVC SR-DVM700 from the rear firewire port. It will log and capture fine, and it will show the current fram when I'm in the timeline, but will not play back in real time - even when it's fully rendered. I have the view>external video set to All frames, and still no dice. I've tried to refresh video devices, and got nuthin'....
    Anyone?

    If you have ever enabled "desktop preview" or such, that can mess up the external monitor I have found. However, just make sure that is turned off, refresh external, etc.

  • Viewer and External Monitor doesn't playback at same time

    When watching clips in the viewer window, they playback fine. But on my external monitor, it only shows the first frame from when it's played. when I stop playback, the external monitor then shows the last frame the Viewer window is stopped on. How can I fix it so that the viewer and external monitor playback the clip at the same time?
    At the moment we're digitizing footage with the Offline RT Photo JPEG codec set to 75% quality.
    A few days ago we were digitizing footage at 35% quality and that footage plays back fine. We moved to 75% quality at the editor's request. A few days ago we had created a few sample 75% quality tests for the editor to view. I loaded those clips into Final Cut right now and they playback fine as well. So it's all of a sudden just these new clips created yesterday :S.

    Yes.
    Forgot to mention that the timeline plays all the footage back properly on both the canvas window and the external monitor. Sorry for not mentioning that sooner.
    More discoveries! The playback 'freeze' only happens if I open a clip from the browser into the viewer. If I open a clip from the timeline into the viewer, it plays-back fine!

  • CS5 Playback Settings grayed out and no longer can set playback on external monitor.

    I like to view my projects while editing on an external monitor but the Playback Settings are grayed out. I've done all my prior projects with external monitor display enabled with no problems and can go back to a prior projects completed and view them using an external playback monitor.  For some reason, the Playback Settings on my latest project are grayed out and I'm not able to set Desktop Video Display During Playback.
    The last project worked on was about 3 months ago. Last week, I started working on two new projects and noticed that I wasn't able to set playback to my external monitor. All my devices are hooked up and I can review older projects on the external monitor but can't set two new projects to use display on the external monitor.  
    Anyone have any ideas?
    Problem solved. My fault.
    The Sequence Preset Settings selected must support the device the external monitor is connected to. In my case, IEEE 1394 firewire. I corrected the new project to the correct Sequence Settings and can now view playback on the external monitor.

    "The Desktop Video 9.7.5 software update allows users to take advantage of many new features in the Adobe Creative Cloud desktop applications such as powerful new editing timelines and shortcuts and audio mixing with Adobe Premiere Pro® CC and new creative and visual effects tools with Adobe After Effects® CC."
    So everything should be covered on that front. And as I listed, I was getting playback out of AE CC, so I feel it is solely an issue in Premiere. That was worth checking out though since CC is so new. Thanks for replying.

  • External monitor--Freeze during playback, transition issues

    I am utilizing an external monitor for playback. Every now and then the video freezes and audio continues. Also, even after performing a render all option, cross dissolves skip periodically during viewing referenced movie. When I compress the movie, I have no problems.
    Please help!

    AFAIK, (I came in around FCP3) It has always been recommended that the operation of the FCP system is divided amoung at least two disks. Each version of FCP is placing higher and higher demands on the system. That you have gotten away with this for so long is truly amazing. You must live right!
    There is really nothing all that new and innovative about the iMac with regards to video editing. In fact, it is a poor platform. It does not allow the installation of a second internal SATA drive, it has no expansion slots to add either a second Firewire or SATA bus, you can not upgrade the video card and so on.
    Recommended distribution of the FCP elements over two disks -
    Drive 1: OSX, FCP application files, FCP Project file (no media files), thumbnail and waveform cache.
    Drive 2: capture scratch, autosave vault, audio + video renders +all other media files
    With a good external firewire 400/800 drive (not usb), you can get multiple realtime streams.
    And no, partitioning the internal drive does nothing good for you. the same heads have to scan over an even wider area after you partition. The effect can be to decrease read/write speed.
    good luck.

  • Jerky playback on external monitor

    I'm getting playback that freezes and hangs up briefly on an external monitor. The video (from Final Cut timeline) is also playing on the preview monitor of my MBP (bought just before current version). Is there a way to stop the playback on the MBP? Is that what's causing the playback problem?
    Thanks for any help.

    The sequence was rendered and everything is on an external drive (spinning at 7200). By sequence settings do you mean my system settings? For playback back it's RT: unlimited, Video Quality: dynamic, Frame Rate: full, Pulldown Pattern: 2:3:2:3, and Gamma Correction: Accurate. The footage was shot at 24p on a DVX100a. Could my pulldown be wrong?

  • Video playback on external monitor

    I have a problem with video playing on my external monitor.
    I have been editing a 30 second commercial with several split screens and quad screens. After my last render, the video no longer plays on the external monitor. A frame plays, and then it freezes. I went thru the "Stock Answers" section and played with the RT settings and the memory/cache settings. Nothing seemed to make a difference. I also opened some older projects and they will not play thru the external monitor either. Finally, another note that may offer some clues is that when you print to tape it sometimes plays perfectly and other times it does not.
    Any help provided will be greatly appreciated!

    Here is my standard reply:
    #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

  • Playback on external monitor

    Hello!
    I recently purchased a new dell 22 inch monitor to accompany my 20 inch alum imac. (and to replace a crappy old dell monitor).
    Previously i used that monitor for fullscreen playback of my HDV video out of Final Cut Pro (FCS2). I just upgraded to snow leopard.
    So i hook up the new monitor (VGA until the DVI adapter comes in).. looks very nice. Go into FCP and change it to play on the external monitor just like before.
    But now when i try to play, it only shows the frame i started playback at (audio is fine) and then updates the frame when i stop playback. The picture looks amazing.. but i kind of need the realtime playback! On the old monitor it played back fine. (i have it set to "show all frames"
    Specs. Mac OS X 10.6 SL. 2.4 ghz intel core 2 duo w/ 4gb ram. Video is stored on FW 800 drive with 500gb. FCS 2.
    If you need anymore info please let me know!

    Try using Final Cut Pro Rescue to delete some preferences.
    Can you test it using full screen with another format besides HDV to see if it works?

  • DV NTSC Video Playback on external monitor

    I can't get my DV NTSC sequence to play on my external monitor. I know I have the computer/Canopus/external monitor connected correctly b/c I can playback some of my old Final Cut Express sequences on the external monitor. I used that as a test to make sure everything was connected properly. Since I can rule that out, I must be missing a setting in FCP somewhere?
    Sequence Settings are NTSC-DV; Compressor DV/DVCPro-NTSC
    View>Video Playback is set to Apple Firewire NTSC
    Can anyone lead me in the right direction? Thanks.

    Hi -
    Go to the menu VIew > Video Playback and select Apple Firewire (720x480):
    !http://www.spotsbeforeyoureyes.com/VideoPB_FW.jpg!
    Then go to the menu View > External Video and select All Frames:
    !http://www.spotsbeforeyoureyes.com/VideoPBAllFrames.jpg!
    If you don't see an image, then go to the menu View > External Video > Refresh A/V Devices, then reselect All frames.
    Hope this helps.

  • External monitor causing playback problems?

    Sorry if this has been covered before. I tried searching but it kind of comes down to what verbs people use to describe the problem.
    I'm running FCP 5.1.4 on a Macbook Pro, and I just bought a Dell 2408 for an external monitor. A few times since I've hooked up the monitor, when I play in the timeline, the video skips and stutters and keeps looping back to the same section. If I switch to a different sequence, it plays fine. This only seems to happen when I have the cinema preview on. If I kill it, click on the canvas window and hit play, it usually plays fine.
    So I've got some workarounds on this, but it's an annoying quirk. Has anyone else had this problem? It seems to be tied to the external monitor, but I don't know if I'm missing a step or something isn't setup quite right.
    Any thoughts or help is greatly appreciated.

    Go to your Audio / Video Settings >> A/V Devices tab and turn of "Mirror on desktop" for Playback ... this will reduce the load on your system as it will not be trying to decode the video for two separate (and different) playback streams simultaneously ie when using Digital Cinema Desktop Preview to display All Frames then you will not see playback in the Canvas window as well, just on the external preview monitor.
    And/Or you could also try setting FCP's System Preferences >> Playback Control >> Gamma Correction to "Approximate" ... according to the manual this can offer a little performance boost (but to be honest I haven't ever tested this).
    Choosing Real-Time Playback Gamma Correction Options
    Whenever you watch your video on a computer display (such as video displayed in the Canvas, the Viewer, or via Digital Cinema Desktop Preview), Final Cut Pro applies gamma correction to the video to more closely approximate the way it would appear on a video monitor.
    Note: Gamma correction is not applied to external video outputs such as DV or third-party interfaces because this correction is inherently applied by external video monitors.
    If your computer’s graphics card supports gamma correction, Final Cut Pro automatically uses the card for accurate gamma correction. If your computer has an older graphics card that does not support gamma correction, you have two gamma correction options in the Playback Control tab of the System Settings window.
    Accurate: High-quality gamma correction. This option is the most accurate but also requires the most processing power.
    Approximate: Lower-quality gamma correction. This option leaves more processing power available for real-time effects but results in less accurate color and brightness rendition.
    Tip: If your real-time performance is limited, try changing the gamma correction setting to Approximate (if available).
    Hope it helps

  • External monitor frozen during playback

    I am having trouble with my monitor not PLAYING during playback. I get an image when I scroll through the timeline but when I play - the image is frozen.. As soon as playback stops, the monitor refreshes to the correct frame - but it doesn't show during playback.
    We have tried all these steps already:
    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
    7 ) 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.
    What is really mindboggling is that the monitor is working in terms of giving us the correct image - just not during playback.
    PLease help - thanks.

    I think you may be onto something with the graphics card concept. The problem I am having only exists when I am working on an HD project. When I switched back to DV-NTSC then the monitor is fine during playback.
    Yes, I am routing my external monitor through my DV deck, which is not an HD deck - so again, that could be another weak link in the chain.
    This is the first HD project that I am editing, so obviously a few kinks still need to be worked out. My internal hard drive has 1.5 gigs of ram but I am not sure what the specs are on the graphics card.

  • Anyone having issues with playback on an external monitor in the new CC 2014?

    So Premiere has updated its little self on my mac and now won't work with my external monitor via HDMI or Apple TV. Works absolutely fine the rest of the time but as soon as I try and get external playback to work it crashes.
    Is anyone else having this issue / know a fix?
    Thanks!

    per Lightroom and Creative Cloud FAQ
    Lightroom must be installed to your local drive and can't be installed to custom location like other Creative Cloud apps. Lightroom always installs to the default location and disregards any preference you select for a custom location. This behavior is as designed.

    I to am having trouble viewing playback on an external monitor.
    I just upgrade from FCP 4 to FCP 5. When I was using FCP 4 I had it set up that all I need was to click on the clip and it would be displayed on the external montior.
    In FCP 5 the only setting I can find for external monitor all through firewire.
    On my powerbook G4, I want to use the svideo out to an external monitor.
    I have gone through at there setting with no luck. Is there any setting that I am missing to get a signal to my external monitor?

  • Audio levels on an external monitor vary during playback when using HDMI audio

    I've been having issues with movie playback using a large 1080p HDMI TV.   During playback the audio level will come in strong, go faint, then go strong again, but not on any sort of pattern I could discern.   It did this on three seperate movies legally purchased via iTunes.  I get audio and video without trouble, its just the audio goes soft when it shouldn't.
    If you remember the VHS days and "MACROVISION" encoding, then you have an idea what it was doing, although it was the audio levels, not the video playback.
    Is this a fault of the system, a DRM gremlin, or something else?

    I think you may be onto something with the graphics card concept. The problem I am having only exists when I am working on an HD project. When I switched back to DV-NTSC then the monitor is fine during playback.
