  • Cant use two monitors?

    Posted by Jared Smith on April 1, 2010 at 12:37 am

    Hey guys
    I have my MBP hooked up using a DVI to HDMI converter and then running that into my 50 inch DLP tv. I was very excited about doing some editing with the 50 inch display but the replay starts jumping all over the place when I hit the space bar. It does it both on the TV and the computer… any thoughts?
    I am using FCP 6.

    Your 50in DLP is not a computer monitor. Use a computer monitor for dual screen editing.

    If your intension is to view your video on a large display, you need a I/O device such as Matrox MXO 2 or AJA io Express.
