Chapter 6: VGA Mode

Please read this chapter carefully if you have
connected a VGA (computer) monitor to your

Casablanca Prestige

in addition to your TV

monitor.

You can use the VGA monitor to work in two-
monitor mode. This means that you see the user
interface on the computer monitor and your
video material on the TV monitor.

This setup is fixed. You cannot view your video
material on the computer monitor! Working
with just the VGA monitor without the TV mo-
nitor is not possible!

You see differences between Video mode and VGA
1-3 in the following menus:

Video settings:

In this menu you see only

the operating panel for making settings on
the computer monitor. Your video material is
displayed on the TV monitor.

Recording:

The operating panel for recording is

shown on the VGA monitor. You see the recorded
video on the TV monitor.

Editing:

When you play the storyboard from

this menu, the playback duration is displayed on
the VGA monitor on top of the Edit menu. Your
video is shown on the TV monitor without any
menu overlays.

Splitting:

If you click on this button, then the

Split menu appears on top of the Edit menu. On
the TV monitor you see the actual video. Now you
can use the Split menu to cut your video scene
while you observe the exact playback on the TV
monitor.

Trim:

This menu is displayed on top of the Edit

menu, just like the Split menu. Here, too, you
observe your video on the TV monitor.

Transition effects:

If you playback the storyboard

from this menu in order to view an inserted effect,
then the Transition-effects menu is overlaid by the
play indicator on the VGA monitor. Your video is
displayed on the TV monitor without any overlaid
controls.

Image Processing effects:

Just as with transition

effects, the playback display is shown in the Long-
term effects menu and the video shown separately.

The button „

Screen

“ offers the following four

settings options:

Which mode you choose to select will depend
on your existing equipment, and your personal
editing style.

Video mode:

Both the user interface and your video material
are shown on the TV monitor. Eleven scenes are
shown in the scene bin. You see seven effects in
the effects list, and in the storyboard you see seven
scenes at a glance (without having to scroll).

VGA 1 (800 x 600, 60 Hz):

The user interface is rendered on the computer
monitor at a resolution of 800 x 600. This means
that the entire rendering is smaller than in video
mode and that more scenes in the scene bin, and
more entries in the effects list can be displayed.
The setting 60 Hz means that the screen image
is repeated 60 times per second. The higher the
Hertz frequency, the higher the image repetition
rate and the less the picture flickers.
