Chapter 5: VGA mode

It is possible to connect a VGA or DVI screen to your system.

You can use the screens either in combination or on their own.

In the System Settings, you can use the “Screen“ button to

select the required mode. This is not possible on portable sys-

tems (notebooks). You can only use the built-in VGA monitor.

5.1 Dual-monitor use (VGA/HDMI as extra monitor

to the video or DVI monitor)

We must distinguish between two types of hardware in this

chapter. The S-3000 and S-6000 and more recent devices

have a DVI output as well as an HDMI output, and they can

be used in dual monitor mode from version 3.4 onwards. Until

now, the devices also had VGA and analog outputs, whereas

they usually do not have an HDMI output. These devices can

be connected for dual-monitor use in several ways.

In order to enable dual-monitor use, all devices must always

have a VGA or DVI (from S-3000 onwards) as their ﬁrst moni-

tor. The second monitor can be of a different type.

This means that the user interface will be displayed on the

computer monitor and your video footage on the second

screen. This setup is ﬁxed. You cannot view your video mate-

rial on the computer monitor. You can also work with a single

monitor. You will then be able to designate any output for the

ﬁrst monitor. With this method, you would see both, the menu

interface and the scene playback, on the same screen.

If you are working in dual-monitor mode, the system will usu-

ally display the “screen saver” on the video monitor. This can

be set under Settings-Monitor-Monitor 2 Options. However,

you can also activate the Storyboard‘s or scene bin‘s scrolling

slider in any menu and thus display the currently active scene

(without effects) on the video monitor. In the Transitions menu,

the ﬁrst of the two scenes is shown.

The settings for the VGA mode are saved locally on the hard

drive. If you are working with several hard drives (removable

drives or built-in drives), the system will always start using the

video mode saved on that particular hard drive.

The distinctions can be see in the following menus (please take

into account that the distinctions are an example of a VGA-TV

combination):

Setup - Video: In this menu you see only the operating panel

for making settings on the computer monitor. Your video foot-

age is displayed separately on the TV monitor.

Recording: The operating panel for recording is shown on the

VGA monitor. You see the recorded video on the TV monitor.

Editing: When you play the storyboard from this menu, the

playback duration is displayed on the VGA monitor on top of

the Edit menu. Your video is shown on the TV monitor without

any menu overlays.

Splitting: If you click on this button, then the Split menu ap-

pears on top of the Edit menu. The current video image is dis-

played on the TV monitor. Now you can use the Split menu to

cut your video scene while you observe the exact playback on

the TV monitor. Should you have chosen the 2-scene view for

splitting, you will see this on the VGA monitor while the current

scene will be displayed on the second one.

Trim: This menu is displayed before the Edit menu, just like the

Split menu. Here, too, your video will be displayed on the TV

monitor.

Transition effects: If you playback the storyboard from this

menu in order to view an inserted effect, you will see the play

indicator on the VGA monitor. Your video is shown on the TV

monitor without any menu overlays.

Image Processing effects: Just as with transition effects, the

playback display is shown in the Long-term effects menu and

the video shown separately. The settings and combinations

for single or dual monitor use can be found in the reference

section.

Setting a color value: Color reproduction on a VGA monitor

is not the same as the actual video color. For that reason, a

control color ﬁeld will be displayed on the video monitor in

addition to the color scale on the VGA monitor when you are

setting a color value. You should take this color as a guide for

your setting.

5.2 Single monitor use

Depending on the type of device you are using, there are sev-

eral possibilities to connect a monitor to your system. These

are: HDMI, DVI, VGA or analog.

A non-analog monitor will provide a calmer picture of the

menus and video footage. You must adjust the “Screen”

button in the “System settings“ menu to the desired mode.

You can choose from several VGA options. After you set the

“Screen” button to the desired VGA mode, the system restarts

automatically and then displays the user interface on the moni-

tor. You can now disconnect the television from the system,

since the television was only needed to start up the system the

ﬁrst time. When the screen setting is changed, it must be con-

ﬁrmed after the display was modiﬁed. Please note however,

that if you select a screen mode that cannot be displayed by

the monitor you connected, this monitor will probably indi-

cated it does not ﬁnd any signals. In that case, you will not be

able to conﬁrm the screen. In this case, the system will switch

back to the previous monitor setting after 30 seconds in order

to restore your display.
