• The color saturation and contrast properties of the picture
displayed on a VGA monitor are very weak but they are dis-
played correctly in “Video” mode (television) . Therefore, please
avoid increasing the saturation or contrast since this could
lead to color bleed or distortion that is not visible on the VGA
monitor .
The picture sharpness is also displayed differently in VGA
mode than it appears in the final video . After you finish editing
the video, we recommend you check the saturation, contrast
and picture sharpness of the footage on a television in video
mode .
• The entire video picture including the overscan area is
displayed when working with various menus in VGA mode
(e .g . when playing, trimming or splitting a video) . This area
sometimes contains image distortion that is no longer visible
when the video is later exported or viewed on the television .
When you are positioning titles, we therefore recommend you
do not place them too far into the area around the edges of
the picture or else the letters will no longer be visible later on .
In any case, please make sure you carry out a final check by
watching the video footage on a television .
5.3 Additional notes
If you are working in dual-monitor mode, the system will usu-
ally display the “screen saver” on the video monitor . However,
you can also activate the Storyboard’s or scene bin’s scrolling
slider in any menu and thus display the currently active scene
(without effects) on the video monitor . In the Transitions menu,
the first of the two scenes is shown .
The settings for the VGA mode are saved locally on the hard-
drive . If you are working with several hard-drives (removable
drives or built-in drives), the system will always start using
the video mode saved on that particular hard-drive . If you are
using the dual-monitor setup, watch both monitors if you are
unsure if the system is booting correctly .
