  • HD Monitoring on CRT Lacie Monitor???

    Howdy

    So far I understand that you can purchase a Dell 24″ or the Apple 23″ + the AJA HDP unit to have a monitoring system for HD.
    Curious to find out if you could use the AJA HDP along with a CRT Monitor.
    Let’s say 19″ Lacie (or equivalent) that supports >1920×1200 resolution; get a convertor from HD15 VGA to DVI and then to the AJA HDP.

    Am I out to lunch or will that work? Have you heard or any place where you can get HD15 to DVI connectors?

    Any thoughts please?
    Thanks
    Sam

    there are countless models of DVI monitors out there, and countless models of monitors that support 1920×1200, or lower resolution ones that support scaling.

    AJA has approved the Apple Cinema Display and the Sony SDM-P234b, and recently on this forum, John Apt from AJA stated that the Dell 2405 works as well. This does not mean that other monitors do or do not work – these are just the models that are “supported”. What that means, is that if you purchase a different monitor – it may work, it may not, but don’t blame AJA.
    The same applies for Blackmagic. I am sure there are many monitors out there that will work just fine.

    Does SD material look good for proper monitoring using these displays or is it only good for HD?
