[MacDV] Re: Video monitor playback?

[Mike Cameron]

The movie on the computer screen from iMovie is of poorer quality. 
What comes out on my monitor is very good quality.  I believe I have 
my monitor connected to the s-video port on the vcr.  I have little 
experience with this but would guess a problem in the setup of the 
monitor.
