  • AJA Kona LHe 720p monitoring not fullscreen

    Posted by Hans Meier on September 2, 2009 at 9:26 am

    Hi everyone,

    I have some difficulties monitoring 720p25 material in Final Cut Pro. When I select the “720p50 10 Bit” preview option I get a picture on my TFT, but it’s not fullscreen – only something around 50% of the screen. I can select the “1080i25 – 10 Bit” option to get a fullscreen preview…but that confuses me somehow. What am I missing here?

    Thanks in advance!

    Oh – I forgot to mention that I’m using a Blackmagic HD-Link to monitor on my TFT.

    Sounds like your monitor is in Pixel Mapping 1:1 mode. So you’re seeing 720p at actual size inside a 1080 display. We have that same feature on our FSI’s.

    Switch out of that mode to see it full screen
