  • New MBP; No Video Desktop only Noise Signal

    Posted by Noe Marti on February 7, 2008 at 11:27 pm

    Installed today my new MBP 2, everything seems to work fine only videodesktop does not work, instead I have a noise signal on my tv. After booting my mac I have that noise signal (no matter if video desktop is on or off) too until I opened a movie clip

    What brand of TV is it?

    The default desktop video output format is HD 1080i60 so if you’re only using an SD monitor, it will not work. Go into your Display preferences, click on the gather windows button and then adjust the DeckLink video desktop output to an SD resolution and you should be fine.

    regards
