System Information:

  • Mac Studio M2 Ultra (192GB RAM)
  • macOS 15.3.1 (Sequoia)
  • Adobe Premiere Pro (Beta) – Updated March 12, 2025

Issue Description:
After updating to the latest Premiere Pro (Beta), I am unable to change the Playback Display to a client monitor or a second display. When navigating to Preferences > Playback, the Video Device dropdown does not allow me to select my external monitor.

 

After updating to the latest Premiere Pro (Beta) (March 12, 2025) on my Mac Studio M2 Ultra (192GB RAM, macOS 15.3.1 Sequoia), I can no longer change the Playback Display to a client monitor or second display. In Preferences > Playback, the Video Device dropdown does not show my external monitor, preventing selection for playback. I’ve checked connections, restarted my system, updated macOS, reset preferences, and even reinstalled Premiere Pro (Beta), but the issue persists. Is this a known bug, or does anyone have a fix?

CORRECT ANSWER - So I just clicked the 'maximize window' icon (upper left macOs window control) and the second-monitor preview appeared. Still 25.3 Build 17 on Apple M1 Ultra Mac Studio 128GB Ram, Sequoia 15.3.2
