Hello all,
I am running Final Cut Pro 7 on a Mac Pro 10.7.4.
I am trying to run duel monitors.
I am using Samsung televisions.
I have tried combinations of VGA and mini HDMI outputs.
The images in FCP are playing very dark and red.
If I play the files using QuickTime they look perfect.
I can't figure out why the images are affected only by FCP.
Any thoughts?
Thank you.

I have one connected using a VGA and one connected using the provided mini output which I have bought a mini to HDMI connector. I have also tried using both mini outputs to HDMI.
If I only use one output the picture is fine. It is only when I try to use dual monitors does the problem occure.

Also, when I was using (what ever it was called before Lion) it had this problem... then one day, maybe after an update, the problem corrected its self. Now that I have upgraded to Lion I'm back to the original problem.

Thank you!
