    Ah…I misread. The Pro Card also has Component out and SDI too, right? Then you should be fine.

    I’m using a Flanders Scientific – LM-1760W and it looks great at 1920×1080. Previewing HD-SDI out of my Matrox MXO2.

    I did just send in the monitor (after 3 months) wouldn’t power up…they did a warranty repair and it’s working now.

    [Kent Beeson] “What about the Flanders Scientific, Inc LM-1770W? Can a person use that to color correct and monitor 1920×180 material even though that monitor is only 1366×768? “

    Yep, we do this every day. You can even monitor 2k on it. The absolute best Broadcast Monitor for under $3,000 is the FSI 1760W and now 1770W. We have been using the 1760W for a while now and after seeing the 1770W a few weeks ago, we’re putting those into the new facility as well.

    We also have two of their 2450W’s in house as well.

    Hands down the best monitors period under $10,000 that I’ve seen are the entire FSI lineup. If you haven’t already, look at their Video Manual which is also a great demo on all the features and performance of the monitors.

    One thing I neglected to mention and you’ll see it on the FSI site. 30 day full money back guarantee so even if you don’t like it, just send it back, get your refund and go get something else. Pretty much a win-win for you.

    Good luck and have fun.

    Hey, Don’t forget the TV Logic line. They are excellent. They do real interlaced SD as well as HD. You might find a demo or B-Stock well under $3K. I got my 23″ for about $2,200.

    Yes, but the LM-1770W, like all FSI monitors, is equipped with a DVI-I input. A simple HDMI to DVI cable would work in this scenario. You could also use component (HD/SD), which would be my choice in this situation.
