Hi,
When using Premiere Pro with the Matrox settings, I get poor quality
playback on my computer monitor, even though the video monitor output looks
fine. I suspect the output on my computer monitor is created using only half
the available vertical resolution, which produces some very ugly artifacts.
Things I've tried to correct this problem (but all have failed):
- dropping the colour depth to 16 bit
- dropping the resoltion on my monitors
- shooting in progressive-frame mode
- changing my Matrox P750 dual-head mode from independent mode to stretch
mode
- changing Premiere Pro playback to "highest quality"
- tinkering with just about every setting in the playback options box.
The video does play fine if I
- use Windows Media Player 9
- open a new Premiere project using Premiere's own PAL settings rather than
Matrox's settings. This isn't a realistic work-around though because
Premiere seems to use all my sytem resources just to play the video.
Please help - how can I get full-res video on my computer monitor when
playing back in Premiere?
My setup is:
Pentium 4 2.8Ghz (512k L2 cache, 800Mhz FSB, HT)
2Gbytes of dual channel DDR-400 SDRAM
Matrox RT.X10 (latest drivers)
Adobe Premiere Pro
Matrox P750 (latest drivers and BIOS)
2 analogue monitors set at 1280x1024
Windows XP Pro SP1
DirectX 9.0b
