Capture and Playback

Progressive HD1080 video playback switch
Choose between 1080PsF and 1080p on playback.
Remove Field Jitter
When interlaced video is paused on old CRT monitors, eliminate field flicker by only displaying a single field.
We do not recommend using this option with modern flat screens.
Set default video standard
On Mac OS X, if you want to use broadcast monitoring with Final Cut Pro X, set the video standard in these
preferences so that it matches your Final Cut Pro X project. This setting is exclusively used by Final Cut Pro X.
On Windows, if you want to capture video with any program that supports WDM (Windows Driver Model),
you'll need to set the default video standard so it matches the video you want to capture. If your program
supports WDM, you will usually find "Blackmagic WDM Capture" listed as a video source option in the
program's video capture preferences. Setting the video standard within the preferences of the WDM
program will work with most WDM programs. However if any problems are encountered with capturing
video, try using the Desktop Video control panel to set the default video standard instead.
Frame output switch
If you have switched out of a video application and video is no longer being played, this setting determines
whether your Blackmagic video hardware will output black or the last played frame of video.
HDMI monitoring formats in 3D mode
When monitoring 3D stereoscopic video, select a format which is supported by your HDMI display: Frame
Packing, Side by Side, Line by Line, Top and Bottom, Left Eye or Right Eye.
Reference Output Timing
A reference signal may also be known as genlock, black burst, house sync or tri-sync. If you have reference
connected but your picture is rolling, adjust the "Set reference output timing" until the picture locks and is
no longer rolling on the Blackmagic video output.
