Slideshow focus blur second monitor

Jun 25, 2012 11:25 AM

Tags: #focus #slideshow #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

    Wild guess Mark - what size previews?  Tried 1:1 size?

    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

    Is the secondary monitor a different resolution?

     

    What happens if you move LR's main window to the secondary monitor?

     

    I'm wondering if the previews that it's rendering are too small.
