External Monitoring and Output
To output a sequence to an external video device, the frame rate of both the sequence
and the video device must match. However, the image dimensions and codecs can be
different. Video is properly scaled and letterboxed or pillarboxed to fit within the
dimensions of your output device.
For example, if your computer has sufficient power, you can:
 Output an HD sequence via DV FireWire
 View a DV or OfflineRT sequence via an SDI video output on a third-party video interface
 Downconvert an HD sequence to an SD video output
Some specific examples of supported real-time video output configurations include:
 A DV NTSC sequence output to DV FireWire, where the sequence contains 1080i60
HDV and 720p30 DVCPRO HD clips
 A 1080i60 HDV sequence output to DV FireWire, where the sequence contains DV
NTSC and DVCPRO HD 720p30 clips
