Displaying a Clip in the Broadcast Monitor

The broadcast monitor outputs a complete image or a selected viewport. When multiple clips are selected, the broadcast monitor displays the first clip in the selection. Broadcast monitoring preferences are set at Broadcast Monitor Preferences. The output can also be customized with Viewing Rules.

In the broadcast monitor, select a clip, then use the Show Selected Item option in the Broadcast Monitor box to display it. Use the Broadcast Monitor buttons to resize and set the proportions of the clip. If the clip is zoomed in on the application monitor, the clip is still displayed in its entirety on the broadcast monitor.

When the Show Selected Item option is selected, you can manage additional preferences.
