Mac Book Pro as field monitor?

Would it be possible to use the Mac Book Pro (the new 15" or 17") as a field monitor when shooting with a Sony PMW-EX3?
That would be neat to use the screen as a field monitor, then edit on the same machine...
Wouldn't that save in not having to have a monitor for the director?
If possible, how could it be done?
Thanks!

  • Can you use a 2007 Mac book pro as a monitor for a current Mac mini?

    Is it possible to use a 2007 Mac book pro as a monitor for a current Mac mini?

    Use a product such as ScreenRecycler over a network. All of these products require a standalone monitor to set up.

  • Color don't work well in Mac book pro 13"  and monitor flash sometimes? Please help me!

    Color don't work well in Mac book pro 13"  and monitor flash sometimes? Please help me!

    Please describe the problem in as much relevant detail as possible. The "etrecheck" fad hasn't made that step any less necessary. The usual results of posting etrecheck output on this site without a full description of the problem are very poor.
    The many "failed" warnings that etrecheck sometimes spews mean nothing. Those warnings are not a reason to reinstall the OS, or to do anything else at all. They should be ignored.
    The better your description of the problem, the better the chance of a solution.
    For example, if the computer is slow, which specific actions are slow? Is it slow all the time, or only sometimes? What changes did you make, if any, just before it became slow? Have you seen any alerts or error messages? Have you done anything to try to fix it? Most importantly, do you have a current backup of all data? If the answer to the last question is "no," back up now. Ask if you need guidance. Do nothing else until you have a backup.

  • Mac Book Pro with external monitor?

    I have a MBP that I have hooked up to an external keyboard, mouse and monitor. When I am booted to OS X I can see the display on my external screen but when I boot into Windows 7 I have to open the lid on the MBP to get anything on the external display.
    How can I get Windows 7 to show up on the external display without having to open the lid on the MBP?

    Never mind, I found it.

  • Mac book pro not driving monitor when on battery

    mid 2010 MBP with ML 10.8.2 (latest updates applied)will not drive an external monitor when on battery.  Have checked the monitor settings and they are fine, have disabled all power saving.
    When open it drives the external monitor as well as the MBP screen.  However the background on the MBP screen is grey rather than showing the background image.
    Any ideas?

    tested on two different monitors and it was the same on each.  I forgot to mention that this functions perfectly on a mid 2012 MBP on both monitors.

  • How do Dual Monitor with my Mac Book Pro (Boot camped with Windows 8) through my mini display port VIA Thunderbolt to a iMac (Model Mid 2011)?

    So I have a Mac Book Pro with a bootcamp Windows 8. I dual monitor on the Mac side with my Mid 2011 iMac through my mini display port via thunder bolt cable. In my perfect world, I would be able to switch to the Windows side and have the iMac mirror or extend my windows display for my gaming pleasure, etc. I'm not sure if it's just a simple driver or that it cannot be done. Please help. Thanks.

  • How do I connect my 2010 Mac Book Pro to two HDMI Monitors?

    Hi All,
    I currently have a 2010 Mac Book Pro (Non Retina) which has only one MiniDisplay Port. I am trying to connect it to two HDMI Monitors. How do I do this? I originally was going to buy a MiniDisplay Port to HDMI Adapter and a HDMI Splitter, but won't that show the exact same thing on both displays? Thanks.

    If you can connect each computer to the Internet at the same time without swapping cables, you have all the infrastructure in place for File Sharing.
    On your Mac,
    System Preferences > Sharing > File Sharing can be used to "Share" [read: "make available to others"]
    OS X Mountain Lion: Set up a Windows computer to share files with Mac users
    If you decide to connect an external Hard drive:
    The PC does not believe there are any other Operating Systems, so it cannot read Mac OS X files.
    The Mac can read and write FAT and exFat, and can Read but not write NTFS.

  • Mac Book Pro (Mid 2010) is no longer recognized the external monitor since Lion update.

    Mac Book Pro (Mid 2010) is no longer recognized the external monitor sinceLion update. On Mac OSX 10.6, I had no problems.
    Mac screen is just blue, as if he switches. But then there is no further signal.
    What can I do?

    Bump- I have the same issue.  Screen slowly dims for no observable reason until I rearrange to point it more directly at light source.  Odd thing is that the light in the room does not change.  So scren will be fine for hours while I am working and at some point just slowly dim until I rearrange.  Any information helpful.

  • HT1379 The USB ports on my 30" Cinema are not working.  The monitor has not been used for a year or so, and the computer is a Mac Book Pro, 1012 model running OS Mavericks.  I need to move the computer between two locations, and the other monitor is a 27"

    The USB ports on my 30" Cinema HD display appear to not work.  The monitor has not been used for almost a year, when I upgraded to a new Mac Book Pro and the 27" retina display.  Now I need to move the computer back and forth between two locations using the two displays.  The need for operating USB ports is essential.  Any ideas.  The display appears entirely normal.  Am running OS X 10.9.

    Disregard, problem solved.

  • Mac book pro, Turns off and goes under protection especially with an External monitor on.

    Mac book pro,
    Turns off and goes under protection, sometimes without any specific motivation, but most of the time when an External monitor is pluged-in.
    I use it when I work with final cut pro, and this problem it's becoming huge and changing my workplans....
    It can turns off also 10 times in two hours.
    In many forums I read that the CPU temp could be the problem, but I've checked it and It's always around 62°-68°....
    In some others they say that the new RAM could be the problem too.
    Is anybody able to help me? (Underneath you can check the Panic Report and my mac informations)
    Thank you so much.

    can i connect two monitors to my mac book pro with HDMI?

    I retract my previous "No." If you can live with limited performance (slow refresh/choppy action video/no gaming) on the second external monitor, you could use a USB video adapter and a DVI-HDMI adapter to connect it to a USB port on your computer.

    Just a note about the system information that appears below your post: iOS 4.3.3 does not run on Macs, only on iPods, iPads and iPhones. When you're posting about your MBP, it would be more useful to those responding to know which version of Mac OS X you're running. Doesn't matter for purposes of this post, but something to remember for future posts.
