* Both displays must be running at the framerate (refresh rate) as your BMD capture rate. In most cases this will be 720p60 or possibly 720p50. | * Both displays must be running at the framerate (refresh rate) as your BMD capture rate. In most cases this will be 720p60 or possibly 720p50. | ||

The trick is to tell the system that the display on the secondary screen is actually 1920 x 1080 and that your 1280x720 output is a window - a "viewport" - on to it. | + | * Cloning is about setting up both displays so that they show the same content.
