Display Options In the Display Options menu you will configure how the desktop display operates during
playback operations.
Display Type
The Display Type pull-down menu provides a choice of display rendering formats: OpenGL
Texture or OpenGL DrawPixels. This setting changes the way the PC’s GPU handles video
overlay on your desktop monitor. OpenGL Texture should be used whenever possible. These
options were described in detail earlier under the Capture screen options.
Display To Desktop
This setting determines when the desktop monitor overlay is present. Choice include:
• OFF – always off (no display during scrubbing or playback)
• While Scrubbing Only – displays media as you scrub through it via the playhead; during
playback there is no display (saving system resources)
• While Playing Only – displays media only during playback
• Always – display during playback and when idle
Display Sizes
The desktop monitor display will be sized according to this setting. You can choose from
select sizes (25% to 800%), enter a custom size (“Custom”), or have KONA fit the display size
according to your Machina screen (“Fit”). If “Custom” is chosen, use the hot text fields
underneath Display Sizes to enter a specific percentage and/or X and Y origin.
Leader/Trailer
Options Leader/Trailer Options allow you to add colorbars, test tone, and black field in a leader to your
clip and black field as trailer. Note that the dotted underline indicates that you can left-click
down and scroll the mouse to increment/decrement these values.
