External Video monitor

[Dooser Harrison]

I'm interested in using a monitor to ...monitor my video editing in Final Cut. I know with the Cinema displays you can set up the Firewire 400 to just display video playback.

However, I'm looking to use a different monitor and was wondering if anyone knows of a way to isolate the video playback or just one window to be displayed on another monitor via DVI or S VIDEO.

sure. with a deck or with your camera you hook the monitor up through s-video. Then, as usual, you hook the deck or the camera up to your computer through firewire. I hear in terms of picture output this is the most accurate way to do it. you can also hook up a video monitor through your video card (dvi) but i hear that this is less accurate.
