  • monitoring i/o scaling or full res card needed? (can I use the HD card for 2k footage or do I need the 4k card?)

    Posted by Asa Fox on January 22, 2012 at 2:29 am

    I’m moving from color to resolve, previously the Matrox MXO2 LE supported scaling 2k to 1080 with nice results, but I’m wondering if with resolve I need the 4k card. Particularly will that even work with my monitor (Flanders’ LM-1770W), maybe I’ll need to be proxy grading anyway if the output stream is too large for the monitor…

    Or can I grade 2k, 4k, whatever, on the HD card, just not getting the full res signal through the output?

    Thanks for your help in advance. 🙂
