  • No external monitor picture from the time line

    I know this has been mentioned before but like others, I am having problems sending the picture to an external monitor. I used to use AVID Xpress pro on the same PC and that sent out fine (you clicked a button from green to blue). But even though I have clicked all the boxes and buttons (especially the blue TV button on the preview monitor ) – I still get nothing. I have a Texas Instruments IEEE from 2004 (win XP SP2). I am sending to a SONY DVCAM via firewire in/out which is then hooked up via composite phonos to a monitor. I can capture fine from the tape vie IEEE and I can play DVcam tapes out to the Monitor – so all the cables are working and the DVcam info is on the screen of the external monitor. I can also control the deck from the capture module (play etc) so a signal is going TO the deck frpm the PC via IEEE. THE DVcam is switched to DV (input select). I cant think what else to do.

    UPDATE. WHen I click the blue monitor picture on the TRIMMER WINDOW that sends a picture to the monitor… Eureka I thought – but then when I click the same blue button in the preview monitor to play the time line out to the monitor – I get nothing – just a black screen (with the DV cam data). The footage is basic (no FX or unrendered stuff)

    the PC is Intel Pent 4 3.20ghz 2.00 GB RAM
