I have a regular computer monitor that I am using for my editing timeline/software (Sony Vegas Pro). And I would like to use a TV as monitor to show me just the preview screen as I edit.
I've hooked up the TV to my computer with an HDMI cord. Now, on the TV screen, I can see my computer desktop (sort of -- it's like the far right side of the desktop). So we know the computer is showing on the TV.
But I can't figure out how to get the editing preview screen to show on the TV when I am editing. I clicked Options/Preferences/Preview Device, and I'm not seeing my TV set listed there. Very confused. There's also a button called "Video Preview on External Monitor." When I click that, it simply gives me the preview screen as "full screen" on my computer monitor (but no effect on the TV monitor.)
If anyone has any ideas / suggestions.. it would be greatly appreciated. Horrifically frustrating. THANK YOU!!
(oh, the computer is a Lenovo K450e)
