External Monitor

May 10, 2010 4:59 PM

Hello,

 

How are you guys previewing HDV on an external HDTV Monitor?

 

The only options in preferences that I have are:

 

Computer Monitor only

IEEE 1394 (OHCI Compliant)

 

Is there a way like Premiere and Encore does it where you can use your second monitor?

I am using a GTX285 and Premiere and Encore Preview fine through the second output source on the card.

 

Thanks!

    No, AE has no built-in HDMI preview. For that you still need cards from BMD or AJA... Well, you can always hope for CS6. In the meantime, file a feature request:

    Old thread, but I Second the Emotion.

     

    My scenario:

     

    My trusty laptop hooked up to a video projector ("second monitor"). I was doing the AE comp final alignment on-site, to project onto a sculptural surface. Tragically, for each tiny adjustment, had to use the Time Preview, in full screen. I had a comp viewer on the "second monitor" but it wasn't true full-screen mode, so it didnt really line up quite the same as the Time Preview.

     

    Would *love* to use plain old second monitor as a video preview device!
