Hi Everyone

I may have found an even simpler way of getting HDMI TV output that goes beyond what the Apple documentation says. I found it strange that the Apple document referenced 4k capable output HDMI devices only. I just wanted to monitor a real 1080P output without having to get an external device. So I tried it on my machine which is just a 2012 MacMini I7 with intergrated Intel 4000 graphics and 8 gigs of ram. I know it not listed as being supported but it works perfectly for 1080P video. I was able to get it to show up a a external video device in my FCP X preferences by following the Apple instruction for the supported devices.
I am using it right now playing back a time line with 4 layers of effects playing at full speed with no problems at all. I have used a Matrox MXO2 with FCP 7 extensivly for video duplication and output of shows to tape so I know what a hardware output should look like.
Best Regards
