    I just recently noticed something in our setup and wondered if this a known issue with CS 5.5. When viewing out the footage goes blurry and it seems worse on our HDMI sets. The SD monitor isn’t as bad but that might be because it’s only a 13″ monitor. Wondered if anyone else saw this ?

    Do you have Premiere set to play out at full quality? I believe 1/2 resolution is default and note that both the Source and Program Monitors are set up independently.

    Thanks Walter. That was it. It’s strange because I always keep that at Full Res and I’m not sure why it was set at 1/2. We’ve been having multiple issues and I didn’t even think about checking that.

    Just another reminder to always check the simple stuff first.

    On another topic I had a quick question for you or anyone else. Since switching to CS5.5 whenever we open a previous project from CS5 I get the popup : “The oreset used by one or more sequences requires 3rd Party components that could not be located….” I have the same card i had before just with the updated firmware and drivers. Is this a known thing that is happening or is something weird going on.

    I have to make new timelines everytime I open an older project and copy everything into a new timeline. Not a big hassle but i’ve never run into this before when upgrading using other I/O cards unless I got a totally new device.

    Thanks.

    As I’m new to Premiere Pro I have no experience prior to CS 5.5 and Kona. All I can say is that the CS 5.5 is the first Kona driver to work with the Mercury Engine so there’s probably a lot new under the hood that makes that popup come up.
