Full Screen Preview in 2nd Monitor

On a dual display system, is there any way to view the video preview of DCP, full screen on your other monitor ?

David:
Of course!
Open your Project & try View > Video Playback > Digital Cinema Desktop Preview - Full screen.
This, of course, is spelled out in the manual that came with the program. Now, I'm not one of those dudes who gets all mad when someone asks a question that can be answered with a manual read, but just so you know, you'll learn so much about the potential of FCP if you do. Sure, it takes some commitment, but man, you'll have no regrets.
Happy editting!

  • Full screen preview with one monitor

    Hello,
    I'm using Premiere Pro CS5 on a Mac with a single monitor. I would like to see the full screen preview on this monitor, hiding all GUI elements.
    By reading around, I could only find the suggestion of selecting the Preview pane and press the ~ or ` key. Unfortunatly, it seems that this shortcut only triggers the Maximize or Return to the Original Size commands. GUI elements remain in the display.
    Is there some preference to select somewhere?
    Thank you, Paolo

    That's as close as you can get with Premiere; it doesn't do a single-monitor fullscreen the way FCP does.

  • Full screen video on 2nd monitor blacks out 1st screen

    When I play a video full screen on a second monitor, iTunes blacks out the first screen and I can't see the Windows desktop. Is there a way around this?

    I'm having this problem as well. Apparnetly the world thinks this is acceptable behavior. I do not. I'm trying to work and feed video from iTunes to an HDTV next to me. Why in the world would I want my 3 other monitors to blank???
    Tripply amazing is that it's worked this way for quite a long time. Apple isn't fixing it, so they must think this is a great FEATURE.

  • Full screen preview in AE CS6

    Hi everyone,
    I'm testing the CS6 trial right now before to purchase, and I'm wondering how can I get Full Screen preview on a monitor.
    I just swithed to Lion on a Mac Pro, with 2 graphic cards. I have 2 monitors for my user interface, and I have a great third monitor with Color Space management feature. This configuration was working last week with Snow Leopard and CS5.5, but not anymore with Lion and CS6.
    Why?
    What I was doing: I was diging into Preferences/Video Preview, I was selecting Computer Monitor Only, and from there, in the Output Mode I was able to select my monitor.
    Now when I come here, in CS6, it's grey and I can't select anything there...
    Any idea?
    Thanks in advance

    May simply be a compatibility issue with whatever graphics card you are using and/or Apple's Cinema Desktop stuff in a more general sense... pöerhaps Dave and Rick can shed some light on this. I'm not a Mac guy, after all...

  • How to choose which monitor displays "full screen preview"

    I have a dual monitor setup and have Bridge configurated so that on the left monitor I have the panes "maps", "filter", "keywords" and "content" and on the right monitor (which is a better and callibrated monitor) I have the pane "preview".
    Now if I select one or more tumbnails in the "content" pane on the left monitor, they show up in the "preview" pane on the right monitor.
    Until recent, when I selected a single tumbnail in the "content" pane (left monitor) it showed up in the "preview" pane (right monitor) and upon hitting the space bar it was shown full screen on the same right monitor and upon left-click on the full screen immage, I got a 100% preview, again still on the right monitor.
    Now the problem is that suddenly, upon hitting the space bar, the full screen preview is no longer shown on the right monitor but is shown on the left monitor. (Same problem for the 100% preview).
    I hope I made clear of myself and that anyone knows how I can change this back again?

    The window was indeed expanded to both monitors and the monitors were aranged correctly but upon your sugestion I temporarely switched everything back to default "one monitor setup" and then back to "two monitor with extended window". I also did a reset of my workspace as sugested.
    The result is that everything is back and working as it shood. Problem is solved.
    Thank you very much.

    Potentially, yes. The standard Preview is 1024 pixels, longest size. Some people (like Omke) have displays 2560 pixels longest side, potentially increasing file size by over 500%.

  • Extreme poor quality in full screen preview and exported movie

    I have spend evenings and evenings to create the content of a project.
    After dealing with error -108 and extreme poor quality in full screen preview and in exported movies (extreme stuttering) I decided to install my iMac new again.
    The error -108 disappeared, but the extreme stuttering still remained in full screen preview and in exported movies.
    If I make the preview screen in the iMovie browser as big as possible there is nothing to see of any stuttering.
    Now I am getting pretty annoyed and have no clue what to do anymore (how to solve this problem) .....
    Anyone any suggestion ?
    The orginal video was recorded with a Panasonic HD camcorder.
    I do have a mid 2011 iMac with 16GB ram and 256GB SSD and 1TB HD with a complete clean installation
    of OS X Lion and iLife. This configuration should be enough to create a proper movie :-(

  • Full screen preview image quality?

    I've recently taken up the 'Creative Cloud plan for Photoshop customers' and am getting to grips with Lightroom for the first time; previously I've used CS6 and Elements 9 & 11.
    However, I have a problem with the quality of full screen previews of images on my secondary monitor, similar to the problem I encountered with Elements 11, discussed in another thread here: http://forums.adobe.com/message/5358611#5358611   (the full screen preview whilst OK was not as sharp with PSE 11 as with PSE 9 due to a different algorhythm used the produce the preview quicker)
    I also use FastStone viewer & that too renders the full screen previews much sharper. It seems that with Lightroom too, full screen previews are just not that sharp - OK but not bitingly sharp. I've even noticed that when opening an image for editing in LR, it doesn't look as sharp as if openined in Photoshop CS6 or CC.
    Any thoughts folks? Is there a way to make full screen previews sharper? Of course it could be argued i suppose that PSE 9, FastStone & CS over-sharpen... or even that the 'problem' may not be so apparent on another monitor ( I have my full screen previews on a Dell Ultrasharp 20" 1600 x 1200).

    Hi,
    The way full screen slideshow is currently implemented Muse is resampling the hero images to the size they are in Design view. For most cases that will work fine, but there's no easy way to force a higher resolution image to be output. The only workaround that comes to mind would be to replace the image after publish/upload/export.
    Hope this helps.

  • Full Screen Problem With Dual Monitor Viewing

    I have a 64 Bit system, Chrome browser and with flash player built in.  I am attempting to view videos on a 2nd monitor while working on the primary monitor.  I have tried this on various sites, TNT.tv, USANetworks.com, etc...  I select full screen viewing.  A message is displayed to exit full screen press escape.  However, when I attempt to do anything else automatically exit full screen on the second monitor.   This should not be an issue and with the way most people view video online, they are doing so on a 2nd monitor or TV.  I have done a google search and it is a common problem, but there is no solution that seems to work.

    I have just posted the same question - missed yours.
    Adobe could you take a look into this - I think solving this problem can't be that hard.

  • Jpeg editing and problem full screen preview

    Hello,
    I am editting some jpegs together to music and in order for my photos to stay sharp, in sequence settings i have kept the compressor and pixel aspect ratio the same as the images when i look at them in item properties.
    So they are compressed by photo jpeg, square and none field dominance.
    The problem is that when i drop new photos into the timeline, they now need to be rendered and im not sure why?
    Also, when i full screen preview on my imac monitor, you can hear the audio but cant see any images until you pause the movie and then the place where you have paused is shown.
    Can anyone please help???
    Regards,
    Michael

    Hello, i change the compressor from photo jpeg to dv pal as didnt have prores lt.   All frame rates and dimensions are the same but i dont really understand field dominance and what progressive means?
    No ProRes? What version are you using? Anyways, using DV might get you some slight problems as it's not exactly square pixels ... but it should be negligible.
    Field dominance tells you which field (a "half frame") is displayed first when playing back interlaced media. Interlaced video does not have full frames but each frame is composed of two fields, each of which has half of the horizontal lines of the full frame. DV's field dominance is upper, all the other interlaced formats are lower field first. If you set the field dominance to "none" in FCP you get a progressive sequence, meaning you'll have full frames.
    You're saying that you changed to DV PAL ... are you in PAL Land? Also you didn't say what your final output will be ... File based? DVD? Web? If there is only one output you should adjust your sequence settings for that.

  • FR: Full Screen Preview of Multi-Camera Angles

    The Program monitor can be viewed in Full Screen mode, as we all know, but when the Program monitor is displaying Multi-camera angles, it can only viewed in windowed mode.  Full Screen mode no longer works in this situation.  This is inconsistent, illogical and unproductive, thus my new FR for Adobe to allow the Program Monitor to be viewed in Full Screen mode, regardless of what it's displaying:
    (feel free to copy/paste and send as your own FR here: www.adobe.com/go/wish)
    How would you like the feature to work?
    *******Enhancement / FMR*********
    Brief title for your desired feature: Full Screen Preview for Camera Angles
    How would you like the feature to work?
    The Program and Source Monitors can both be toggled in/out of  Full Screen mode with a single keyboard shortcut, a fantastic feature.  Why then can't the Program Monitor display in Full Screen when it's displaying Camera Angles, either with the Multi-Camera Preview Monitor on or off?  A window that can be viewed in Full Screen should always allow full screen preview, regardless of what it is displaying!
    Why is this feature important to you? 
    Consistency and a logical, productive UI is beneficial to all editors.  The fact that the Program Monitor window can be viewed in Full Screen in one instance but not another, is illogical, inconsistent, and a productivity hindrance that should be fixed.
    Ideally, Adobe could give us a separate, Full Screen capable window for displaying Camera Angles.  This way users could display their Camera Angles on one monitor, and their Program Monitor on a second monitor, all in Full Screen mode, without the visual polution of a windowed interface whenever that interface does not contribute to the editing task at hand!  Here is my thread regarding that request: Help Improve Premiere! FR: Separate, maximizable Multi-camera view.  However, should Adobe be unable or unwilling to provide us with the suggested interface that would provide maximum customizability/flexibility, at the very least having the option to view our Program Monitor in Full screen mode when viewing Camera Angles would be useful.

    The iSight is either 640x480 (older MBPs) or 1280x1024 (newer MBPs). Displaying it 'full screen' especially in an older MBP (which is what you have if you're posting in the correct forum) would result in a horribly pixelated image, not 'high resolution'. The apps that show the iSight feed are showing it at its native resolution, and that's a limitation of the hardware. If you need higher resolution, you can attach a higher resolution video camera (for example, my Panasonic DV camcorder connects via FireWire and can be used as a webcam).

  • Zany image for full screen preview

    sometimes I get  this kind of thing when View>full screen preview (reduced to fit):
    Hard to evaluate.  Need to restart computer but i dont want to.
    mac OSX.7.4
    bridge 6 up to date

    It could be one of several things, but the first suspects are a bad video card or, bad VRAM or bad RAM, either one of which can go bad at any time.
    If Use Software Rendering totally fixes it, then my money is on the video card being the culprit, of course.  The card or the VRAM on it could be failing, and the video driver file can get corrupted too,  Temporarily substituting the graphics card for a known good card will show whether it's video hardware or video software related.
    What are the temperatures inside that Mac?  You can use Hardware Monitor (shareware) to read that.  It could be heat related, especially if you get readings above 170ºF.

  • Full screen preview on Laptop

    Hi. As I understand it, there is no way of getting full screen preview on a laptop (eg my macbook pro) in Adobe Premiere CS5. Is this correct?
    This is seriously putting me off buying Premiere.
    PS. I know you can maximise a panel but this is not the same thing.
    FCP allows you to do this!!!!

    FCP has an option to output the content of the Program Monitor (or Canvas--whatever they call it) to a full-screen overlay on a single monitor; it's different than the '~' Maximize Frame command. As the OP says: "PS. I know you can maximise a panel but this is not the same thing."
    Personally, I find the full-screen overlay thing in FCP not that useful; yeah, you can preview an edit, but you can't actually do anything, so you're flipping back and forth. Diff'rent strokes...

  • Full screen preview - blurry?

    Can anyone tell me why my full screen previews are slightly blurry? They are nice a crisp when I view at 100%, but a bit blurry full screen.
    Updated CS5
    Thanks.

    Have you selected "Generate Monitor-Size Previews" in Preferences>Advanced?

  • Can't check photos to import in full screen preview

    Hi All,
    Bit of a frusting bug, unless I misunderstand it,  but when I import photos using Aperture from a SD card, I can only do so in the tiled view (max 9 photos to a screen on my 21" Mac)
    I'd much prefer to select the files to import in the much larger single photo view so I can see them better before deciding to import.
    As in the screenshot above, there is a check box in the single photo preview, to the bottom left, but it doesn't seem to do anything. Only photos checked in the list or tiled view are added to the photos to be imported.
    Any ideas why this doesn't work (or what the check box in the single photo preview is for if not this??)
    Thanks in advance.

    Just to be clear, it might be easier to screenshot!
    I tick the checkbox in the large import preview - notice the import checked remains greyed out - it doesn't recognise it:
    If I then go back to the grid view. The photo is still checked, but Aperture still doesn't recognise that it is to be imported:
    However, if I stay in the grid view, remove the tick and add it again, Aperture import does recognise it and adds it to the import list. I can now use the import button.
    Not the end of the world obviously, but when going through hundreds of photos, it would be very handy to scroll through full screen previews with the arrow keys so I can see them better and check them to be imported as I go.
