Re: DigitalFilm card problems/solutions
Does your PC monitor work fine with any of the older Macs in general? I have a 19 Dell branded (Sony) monitor that simply won't work with any of my older Macs, while my 15 Sony monitor works just fine. The reason I ask is that my DigitalFilm card automatically stepped down to whatever monitor I was using. For example, if I had it plugged into my 15 Sony and ran it at 1024x768, then turned around and plugged my 13 Apple monitor into it - it'd automatically run at 640x480. I wouldn't need to reset anything... dustin On Friday, January 17, 2003, at 01:08 PM, Mark Benson wrote: Sorry - had to do a widespread trawl across the remaining NuBus lists to get an answer as the 1st-Powermacs list ppl seem stumped.

I do all my color correction on this monitor and I'm able to print what I see. I think the better monitors use this type of connection-perhaps the BNC cable help make them capable of being color balanced more accurately. I don't know if this is true but one of the greatest monitors I've ever used or seen was the Barco. It had a very sophisticated tuning system for color balance and distortion control. I had six of them in the shop I ran and was able correct/manipulate and print color images that were as seen on the screen. This was in 96 and 97 when color management was in its infancy. I've upgraded the S900 from a 604e/250 using sys 7.5 to a G4/450 using 9.1 without losing the function of the monitor or card. dan_A -- Vintage Macs is sponsored by http://lowendmac.com/ and...
