Second Preview Monitor Not Working
I been trying to use a second screen as a preview monitor to see my videos full screen, but is not working. I followed this Lynda tutorial but still my second monitor didn’t show. Here is a screenshot of my settings:
Although the second monitor is checked I still can’t see the second monitor going fullscreen. Also I would like to use Blackmagic Playback (via the Blackmagic Intensity Extreme) but I wasn’t able to make it work either. Here are my specs:
Mac Pro (Late 2013)
Processor 3.7 GHz Quad-Core Intel Xeon E5
Memory 12 GB 1867 MHz DDR3 ECC
Graphics AMD FirePro D300 2048 MB
Software OS X 10.9.5 (13F34)Adobe Premiere Pro CC
2014.1 Release
8.1.0 (81) BuildAny help will be appreciated.

Hey Luis,
The only way to display the preview or program monitor on your second display, you will need to physically drag the window over. For Blackmagic playback via your intensity you will need to enable it on the playback menu. Keep in mind, Blackmagic will not playback non standard formats.
Hope this helps!

Thanks for the suggestion Brett
I knew about dragging the program window to the second monitor (I been doing that for years). The thing is that on the Lynda tutorial the program window automatically goes full screen when the options in “Playback” are changed. That is not working on my end. Any suggestions?

If the only way is to drag a window onto secondary desktop, what does the “Video devices” tab that lists connected displays actually do?
