Adding a monitor
Hopefully this is simple.
We have a g-5, final cut and two apple monitors. We want to add a client monitor, a flat screen (which we already have… a decent one with all the inputs you would want).
Two issues. On an NTSC sequence, by looping out of our beta machine, it plays fine on this “client monitor”… but the audio is out of sync. Why is this and is there any way around it.
Two: on an HDV sequence… it doesn’t play. It will capture a freeze frame (and update it) everytime I push pause on the sequence but it will not play fluid motion. Is there a way around this as well?
Do we need to buy something additional?

Jeff,
First, you haven’t mentioned if you have a BM or Kona card and your gear is not listed in your profile. I’m assuming you have one or the other.
Second, your HDV sequence is HD, so you’re routing an HD component signal through an SD Beta machine. If you’re expecting it to display HD on your flat screen monitor, that ain’t gonna happen. You should be trying to display a letterboxed SD signal, cuz that’s all you’re gonna get out of a SD beta deck.
