  Setting up reference monitor with Deck Link Studio

  Posted by Jay Lloyd on July 18, 2012 at 2:50 pm

  Hi all,

  I am trying to set up a reference monitor with After Effects CS5 using Deck Link Studio 2 via SDI on a Mac Pro.

  In the system preferences:

  Set output: All video, 4 analog audio & 2 AES/EBU
  Set input: SDI Video & SDI Audio
  Use video set up at in NTSC: at 7.5 IRE for use in the USA
  checked: Use 1080p no 1080PsF
  checked: Remove field jitter when video is paused
  Set default video standard as: HD 1080p 25 (Which is the format I usually work in)
  When not playing video: Black

  In AE preference:

  Output Device: Blackmagic Video Output
  Output Modes: (this is where I have problem)

  My comp is set to HDTV 1080p 25fps. But I couldn’t find a matching setting in the output modes drop down menu . I tried many settings, but none of them give me the result I was expecting. It either has this subtle but unbearable flickering/strobing or terrible interlacing(because I tried to set to to 50i).

  Does anyone have similar experience ??
