Jumpy Preview
 

Hi all, I recently changed my PC and monitor (CRT to LCD) now all my video previews (on the LCD, not previewing on anything else) jumps, when I say jump I mean it suddenly repeats a second or fraction of a second it has just played, eg 1,2,3,4,5,4,5,6,7,8 - hope that makes sense (those numbers are not refering to frames but units of time).

I checked off the preview to DV hardware in PPro options and left everything pretty much default.

I never had this problem before and this new PC is pretty bog standard and by no means under-powered.

Any ideas appreciated, thanks

The most obvious reason is your video card - is it adequate to drive your LCD monitor? Have you checked the settings on your video card?

Is your LCD monitor 4x3 or 16x9?

Hi Ervin, thanks for responding

My video card is an ATI Radeon X300 PCI-Express 128mb. Latest driver. The LCD is 16x9 running at 1440x900. It's the same video card I used with the previous CRT (19") which was running at something like 1600x1200 with no problems. Checked the settings and is seems normal....

Well, I guess you only have two options: either check your new monitor on another computer or put your old one back to make sure it's not something in the computer... just thinking with a technician's mind (I fix HD TVs for a living).
