Premiere to External monitor?
Hello there,
I have just acquired an old JVC PAL monitor which I want to use for previewing my editing while I edit in Premiere Pro. I have setup my graphics card to display the screen but that is as far as I can get.
When I play video in any other video player, Windows Media Player for example, the output is displayed full screen. But unfortunately, when I press the play button for my preview monitor the video does not do the same thing.
My graphics card is the GeForce4 MX400 with AGP8X
It displays what my computer monitor displays fine, and plays video full screen as required. But it does not play Premiere’s sequence preview full screen.
Any ideas? I am lost with this.
David.

The only way to get a true sense of what is going on is to hook a camcorder (or DV deck) to the firewire port of your computer and from there hook it to the monitor. As far as I know there is no way to make the playback appear in a 2nd monitor scenario.

I agree with the post above, firewire out of pc to converter, IE camcorder to rca/s-video out to TV in, change the settings in the preview window to playback video on pc & DV hardware. I use canopus 100, but after a dozen posts here. this is the only solution I could fine.
If there is another solution, please somebody let us all know.
Is there a specific graphics card ?Maybe PP ver 2.0 will have a few more of these enhancements
thanks all

I should think any video card with a breakout box should do it. For instance the PNY Quadro 540

Late reply as usual… I am doing this with no problems. I too use an Nvidia card. But I have 2 LCD panels, so I had to add a second video card to the computer. One handles an LCD panel and the Sony PVM 1940 monitor. If Media Player and QuickTime play back on the video monitor as mine does, I’m not sure what the problem with Premiere is. Just wanted to let you know it can work without buying external gear or playing out through your camera or deck.
