Hello all,
I was just wondering about the quality of the image that a MacbookPro sends out through the DVI when using Apple's S-video adapter... I need to color correct my film... I have a 17 inch MacbookPro and a calibrated NTSC monitor with SDI and S-video in and FCP 5.1.2.... I was thinking about color correcting in FCP while monitoring on the NTSC monitor using the S-video out through the adapter with FCP's Digital Cinema Desktop Preview function...
Will the colors and levels be accurate at all if I were to do this? Thoughts? Comments?
I know a pure SDI out to the NTSC monitor would be the way to go but I couldn't find a non-insanely expensive solution that would work with my MAcbook Pro....thanks in advance!
