#8 External Monitor Viewing.

Shane’s Stock Answer #8:

A simple path is mac > firewire > camera or deck > rca cables > tv

Then start up your camera and tv, then open fcp.

Then go View > External video > all frames
Video playback should be Apple firewire NTSC (If you are using an NTSC set)
Audio playback should be Audio follows Video

Techinially, this should send synched video to your TV

If for some reason you can’t view your timeline on your external monitor, there are a few things to try:

1) Make sure that the camera/deck is connected and powered on BEFORE you open FCP.

2) In the Final Cut Pro menu select AUDIO/VIDEO Preferences and make sure your signal is being sent out thru Firewire DV.

3) Go to the menu and select VIEW>EXTERNAL>ALL FRAMES.

4) Click in the % box above the image and select FIT TO WINDOW.

5) Go to VIEW->refresh A/V devices

6) Make sure the Log & Capture window is closed

If you want it to play in both the canvas and the external monitor you need to go to the FINAL CUT PRO menu and select AUDIO/VIDIO settings and make sure MIRROR ON DESKTOP is selected under the PLAYBACK OUTPUT section

What LED are you talking about? Some sort of LED light projector?

I was talking about the LED screen on the camera. Anyway nesting the timeline didn’t work. Do you have any other ideas. should I be looking at the hardware? I just captured footage from the camera yesterday so I know the connection was working well less than 24 hours ago and I do get an audio signal, just no video

I get it, I think you mean LCD of the camera.

Change the video output to 29.97 firewire.

View > Video Playback > dv 29.97

Did you try ANY of my suggestions?

And are you on a DV 29.97 sequence? Or 23.98 now?

thanks for the suggestions but none of them led to any progress…

[Please_do_not_use_all_caps_for_your_name_or_when_posting]

yeah sorry, LCD… Okay will try the switching to 29.97. I did try this earlier though and it lead to issues in terms of the edit.

will let you know

I don’t have an option for dv-29.97 under view-videoplayback-the only applicable option is apple firewire ntsc (720-480) I don’t see any framerate options, is there something I am not seeing?

also when you say change video output to 29.97 were you refereing to the playback? or do I go back into easy setup and change it again to regular dv-ntsc on top of the playback change?

thanks

Just use the view menu and change it to firewire 720×480.
