as long as you get the correct signal converted to HD/SDI, just make sure the monitor you are going to is calibrated correctly from the signal it is being fed.
what model monitor are you planning on going to, and does it have a blue only mode to set up color on colorbars? just send HD color bars out of the FCP, set your black level with the pluge, the white level so it doesn’t clip any whites, and your color with blue only, and you’re set…or hire someone to correctly calibrate the monitor with professional calibration gear, colorimeter…etc…if you’re near NYC, you could hire me!

okay, so with the Kona…I didn’t see any 23.98 to 59.94 conversion in either the view settings in FCP or on the control panel…but i ended up having to stop my testing short since the client who wasn’t supposed to be in, came in, lol…figures…
we have been running the BM card with the 23.98 to 59.94 conversion in the view settings…but we’ve been having problems…we get crashes every so often…and the canvas and output on the plasma both go green….
we have been getting around some of this by sending the output to the preview monitor…(we use a 24″ LED Apple Cinema Display for editing, and have a 30″ Apple HD…)and that works well, but when others are in to view…they use the plasma.
one other issue we have been experiencing in….you guessed it, drop frames…playing back 2k media on our san drops frames every so often….a workaround that I’m going to tell the editor is to edit in 1080p 23.98 instead of 2k sequences…that may help dropped frames….
thanks for the responses and feedback!

Kona installer did not ask to uninstall anything…but when I opened the FCP, there were no BM codecs…and I did run the conflict checker…and it didn’t find anything…
the BM driver was still there, so i uninstalled them with the uninstaller program…
