No HD output on MINI MONITOR

PostWed Aug 21, 2013 12:34 pm

Hi,

I just started installing my brand Ultrastudio mini monitor ( thunderbolt) . I use Avid MC 7 and Smoke Ext 1 on a 2013 MBP Retina display. ( 500 ssd,i7/2.7ghz, 16gbram)
Unfortunately i cant get anything working in HD. In the BM system preference ( firmware 9.7.7) it would not work without "output processing". When it s "off" nothing happen . when i turn it on to "HD to SD conversion " than a poor SD image output show up on my Panasonic plasma monitor. ( both HDMI and SDI) :cry:
I tried it on Smoke , MC7 and blackmagic express. Alway the same issue.

Anyone i should know? Is it a a problem with the BM device?

help is greatly appreciated.

What model is the Panasonic monitor and what HD res and frame rate are you trying to output?

You could try 24P instead of 23.97, failing that try 60. Have a look through the specs sheet for the Panasonic monitor, that's what I did.
