Preset Preview on Second Monitor

I would like to take this opportunity to submit a feature request that would make it possible to preview how a preset would look like on a second monitor. As it currently stands you can preview the effect in the small image above the preset list. Unfortunately it can be difficult to judge the effect a preset will have on the image because of the relatively small image your previewing it on.
It would be sooo nice to be able to see the preview on a second monitor, and will cut down on the number of times a preset is applied and then removed because I didn't like how it looked when seen on the larger image.    
BTW, thanks for making it possible in LR3 to filter and/or create smart folders based on Focal Length. It is greatly appreciated!
Regards, JML                             

This is an absolute must.

  • Feature Request:   Preset Preview on Second Monitor

    Currently, when you have monitor 2 set on "Loupe" mode and it is set for a "Live" view, and then scroll across the filmstrip on monitor 1, you can see the images change on the second monitor.
    I would like to have the ability to set monitor 2 on "Loupe" mode with a "Preset" view, so you can see the effects a preset will have in the larger view, as you scroll over the presets you have created on monitor 1.
    The ability to see what effects a preset will have on an image is a great tool. The only issue I have with it in its current condition is the size of the preview window. IMHO, being able to see how the image would be effected full-screen before having to actually apply a preset would take this feature to another level.
    Any comments or suggestions would be appreciated.

  • AE CC 2014 mercury preview on second monitor suddenly lost

    Hi
    First mercury preview was working fine on my second system monitor and through blackmagic (beside the lack of scaling the image through BM)-
    Then because AE suddenly had a problem with initialising Media Core I un-installed AE and re-installed again.
    Now I don't have the mercury preview on my second monitor anymore! (I need it because only this way I can monitor scope format)
    The preview of standard HD works fine through Blackmagic instead!
    Anyone knows how to solve this (urgent)
    Thanks.
    Regards,
    Uli

    Hi Tim
    Thanks for getting back to me about this issue.
    Actually this is a minor problem, or none at all.
    What is a bit frustrating that Blackmagic won't do any scaling. Aja does a pretty niche job.
    This is mentioned in the AE_video_preview document as well.
    The point is that it is possible because Davinci Resolve does it with the same card.
    Best regards,
    Uli

  • Slow preview on second monitor

    Hello
    I'm using two monitors with LR5, and the second monitor is the preview screen.
    I find the preview on the second monitor to be painfully slow in both the Library and Develop modules:
    1) If I am the Develop module, and I move to the next photo, and zoom the preview to 100% (or if it is already at 100%), it take a minute, literally, for the preview to display correctly.
    2) In the Develop module, sometimes the display does not update correctly at all. If I adjust a slider on the Details tab, however slightly, the preview then updates almost immediately.
    3) In the Library module, if I switch the main window to single photo view, and view 100%, then, as I browse the photos, the main window updates very quickly, but the preview window lags behind.
    I'm working with Fuji X-Trans RAF files, and this maybe this si the issue? JPGs update almost immediately in the preview window in both modules.
    Does anyone have a similar experience?
    Mike

    Sounds like this problem:

  • Video preview through second monitor

    I'm running PPro CS5 on a mid 2010 Mac Pro with an ATI Radeon HD 5770 graphics card.  The card can feed up to 3 monitors - of which I have two connected right now.  In Encore I can choose to preview from either monitor, but in PPro I seem to get only two options - 'None' and 'DV'. In CS3 (on a PC) I used to be to enable this with the Desktop setting.
    How please do I set things up to find my second monitor?  I have updated my Mac's software (which should pick up the latest approved graphics drivers), so I don't think it's an ATI problem.
    Thanks very much
    Julian

    Here you go Jim.  A little cramped for me having the main Premiere interface on one screen, but it will do for now.  If I can get the third screen running, I wn't really need my MX02 Mini - which doesn't yet work properly on the Mac anyway...
    Good luck with making your system work this way.  Let me know if I can help further.

  • Previewing with second monitor

    all I want to do is burn video to dvd. I want to make sure that the media is within the title action safe area. I made a video for my girl and it looked fine in the safe area on my lcd monitor but when I played in on my HD tv it was beyond the safe area. I've been looking at Blackmagic Intensity Pro
    HDMI Capture Card and DeckLink SDI but am at a loss when it comes to the second monitor.
    my questions are:
    what would be the most budget minded setup to do this?
    can I hook up a regular hd tv in order to preview?

  • How do you move Mail, Preview to second monitor?

    This is probably a dumb question... I have a second monitor connected to my Macbook Pro. I can move Chrome and other programs to second monitor by dragging them there. I'm unable to drag Mail, Preview to the second monitor.....
    What am I doing wrong?

    Do you mean ---
    To a second monitor, or to a third, "grade" monitor?
    How "most" people are doing it... among the now 1.4 million licensees of FCP, I can't really comment. I don't think there are that many grade monitors in use, fewer users of even external monitors. For two-monitor setups, the use of a 2xDVI GPU is the way to go, but the video is NOT conditioned for broadcast display, at least up to this version, and not likely to change until Snow Leopard, when the 1.8/2.2 issue is rumoured to be addressed.
    The preferred method that was envisioned by the engineering team was to use an AJA or Blackmagic AV-SDI interface, so that all the up/down/cross gamma and colourspace and framerate and resolution issues could be taken care of by somebody else.
    There is a landslide of opposition to this because "proper monitors and video interfaces are too expensive". So "many" people gaff-tape and Rube-Goldberg "less expensive" solutions using computer graphics displays. They run into a lot of problems, not restricted to, for examples, an inappropriate contrast ratio, non-standard spectral response, and incompatible third-party color profiling which completely garbles the output.
    It is an extremely complex problem. At the moment only SDI is supported, FireWire will likely never happen as it doesn't have the bandwidth to be useful.

  • How do I get photos to preview in a second monitor on Bridge CC?

    This question must have been asked here before but I wasn't able to find the answer. Sorry if this is a repeat question...
    How do I get photos to preview in a second monitor on Bridge CC? It's harder to find the answer this than I expected it to be.
    Thanks.

    Thanks, Curt. I wondered if that was it.
    In other CC applications I can detatch the tab and drag it over. I guess it's not that bad to do the stretch, though.
    Thanks again.

  • Preview highlight and shadow clipping mask in second monitor

    Hi, I'm new in the forum and just starting with the new LR3. I have a question about to preview highlight and shadow clipping in the second monitor, becouse I can't check the mask clipping in my second monitor as in the LR2... Is there a possibility to change it to preview the mask in the second monitor?
    Thanks and regards
    Daniel

    Yeah, thanks.... but I mean that when you are in develop mode and you try to see the highlight or black clipping mask, red or blue, now in LR3 only appears in the main monitor, not in the second monitor as well like in LR2... Maybe I'm not explaining very well the difference...

  • Second monitor canvas preview

    I have a Sony TV that has HDMI in and I would like to use this as a preview monitor. Can I just run a DVI/HDMI cable from the tower to the tv? Or is there another way?

    Window > Arrange and right at the bottom New window for (your file name)
    You can drag this across to the second monitor, and work on either window.  The results will be reflected in the other window.  You can have each window at different zoom levels, so It's a useful trick for seeing an overall result of making a local edit while zoomed in.
    Note: if your dual monitor workspace has panels open on the second screen, they will obscure the new window.  So you would need to change the workspace back to something like Essentials.

  • CS4 - Is there a way to adjust gamma for second monitor or send to overlay?

    One thing that is evident when I edit in Premiere CS4 using the AVCHD 1080i 60 template is that the preview in the second monitor, which in my case is my TV set connected using a DVI to HDMI cable, is that the output is too dark compared to what it should be. Darker areas of the frame sometimes even get crushed into black when the same footage, when played directly from the camcorder, or even burned to blu-ray and played, is noticeably brighter and at the right black levels.
    This doesn't happen when editing in Vegas Pro 8, or when the untouched footage is played through other video player, including Windows 7 Media Center.
    A workaround for this problem can be to go to the graphics card control panel, in my case ATI Catalyst, and adjust the gamma for the second monitor, with the problem being that when you're done editing in Premiere you have to go back to the normal gamma. At one point I had setup two profiles in Catalyst with shortcuts and it worked well, but one day Catalyst simply lost the profiles and noticing how buggy it was I wasn't going to keep creating profiles so that Catalyst would delete them.
    So my question is, since it's not in the preferences, is there some settings file or registry address that I can tweak to make Premiere display a brighter gamma of my choice?
    And this may be a dead end, but is there a way to send the output of the second monitor to the overlay so that it can take advantage of the graphic's card video capabilities and display video smoothly? It's nice to have a preview of the timeline, but it's rather annoying if I have to go to the Catalyst control panel and adjust gamma before editing and after editing and that motion is jerky and not interlaced when I'm editing interlaced content.

    You need the VESA mount option. That way your minimum angle would be completely vertical and you could open it to a negative 10 degrees.
    Hope this helps.

  • Play itunes videos on a Large Second Monitor

    Hi Folks,
    Ultimately, my goal is to have a late model Mac Book Pro, connected to a least a 24 in. secondary monitor or High end Larger tv 32-50 inches or so connected through a HDMI cable.
    Then I would like to run iTunes - in which the APP will show on the laptop screen, and as I trigger videos from iTunes - they will play on the secondary monitor - all in my preset large size.
    Currently - in my testing I have a Vista PC laptop running iTunes (latest) and 24 in. secondary monitor.
    At first I set video preferences : separate window full-size - but each time a video played - it would black out the laptop's screen which I do not want to do - since I need to use iTunes while the video plays... (to select other videos etc.)
    The video prefs were then set to: open in a separate window
    At first - I started playing a video - and dragged it to the 24 in. monitor and set it to a large size
    As I jump from video to video - many times the newer video would resize itself to a small window - often different for each one - and I would have to manually resize it... not what I wanted to do.
    So - I set up one large screen size - then I selected all the videos - Control-i (get info) - and set all of them to remember playback position....
    Then - as I jumped around from one to another - they seem to stay closer to the size I want - But some still get smaller and bigger...
    Q: how can I set this up - so all videos will play on the second monitor in the same position and size window for each one?
    Is this better on a MBP or should Vista PC work right also? Is it better on the latest mac w snow leopard?

    *I was wondering if you can play music videos on a second generation iPod nano.*
    The second generation Nano is not designed for video playback and won't load music videos, video podcasts or other video files.
    *It has a space for music videos but I'm not sure if you can play them*
    iTunes has a default video playlist, the Nano picks this up but not any files that are contained in it.

  • Slideshow focus blur second monitor

    For my weddings, I sometimes develop some pictures on my laptop and show them on a 17" apple monitor.
    In LR3 I could only use fullscreen slideshows without any text, lines or shadows, or it would blur my pictures.
    In LR4 this is still the case!
    What am I doing wrong?
    The only time it produces sharp pictures is with one monitor, or with a picture fullscreen but I want a line around them!
    Not sharp with a slideshow on second monitor, even with 'blank other screens'.
    And yes, I'm letting it make previews.
    Help?
    Thanks!
    Regards,
    Mark, The Netherlands

    Hi Victoria,
    I use prepare previews in advance.
    Then, all pictures are crispy sharp when I use 1 monitor.
    But when I use the second monitor for showing the pictures they are blurred.
    Do you mean I have to make 1:1 previews in advance, before LR makes the previews in advance?
    Thanks, Mark

    The image on the second monitor is only for preview purposes and as such there is virtually no chance of local adjustment tools support.
