Cineform/Video Card Playback minor issue
 
Okay I searched around on this one and didn't find much. I was recently having troubles with getting video to playout on my quadro 1500 card and finally solved that problem via one of the threads here.

However, I'm still having a minor issue with playback: whenever I stop, the video goes away and the desktop returns on my tv monitor. And it doesn't just go away, there's a huge glitch in the transition. The same thing happens when I press play in the timeline (I'm using CS3 with AspectHD, btw)--a huge glitch hits the screen, then playback begins.

When I am in a non-cineform project, I know there is a setting to 'display desktop when video playback is idle' (or something like that), but there isn't in the Cineform playback settings window. I'd like to always see video on my tv monitor whether the video is stopped, rewinding, playing, etc. Is this possible?

It's not the end of the world or anything, as I can still edit and view video, just a little annoying. Is there a setting that I've overlooked? If there is already a thread on this, please point it in my direction!

I have the same card, same sw and the same experience. But I've noticed the TV (2nd) monitor behaves differently depending upon how it's hooked up to the card. DVI to HDMI shows more glitches and pauses than DVI to VGA, but of course with VGA you don't get HD. And using the breakout box to component wasn't much better.

I'm currently sending HD component out via the Quadro breakout box to a HD 38" CRT (heavy sucker, too). The quality isn't bad; actually it looks great considering my footage is shot from a Canon HV30. The glitches are what's bothersome.
