    Any one out there get shake and Kona2 to play nice?
    If so, any tips, or Kona setup templates that the comunity could use?
    We are setting up a shake system on a G5 and we need to out put video to a client broadcast monitor.
    If not Kona, then what? We have not yet purchased, but we have 1 kona2 in the facility already, so it would be nice to stay in the Aja club.
    Any info would be great, but soon please as we need to move forward.
    Thanx.

    Mark!

    I don’t think there’s a problem with the Kona 2 and Shake playing nice at all… should be an external video output setting in Shake to allow you to select the K2 as the device… should be plug and play I’d think…

    My Kona 2 and Shake work well together. Go into the globals tab, open up “guiSettings” then”broadcastHighQuality”. Under”broadcastMonitorNumber” set tthe number to monitor you want display the video. In my set up I have two 23″ Cinema displays so I set it #3. #2 would display the video on my second cinema display. Then in the main viewer in Shake enable the broadcast monitor ” The button that looks like little tv. You should now be getting display on your video display. Just be careful of the gamma settings in shake, Know what you are looking at.
