Source Projector Lower Resolution than Source?

Hello!

I've been using OBS for years now, and have never really needed to use any of the source or preview projector functionality. I'm capturing video off of a Blackmagic Intensity Pro 4k, and have a use case where I need to see just that source on another monitor.

From this source, both the stream itself, and when I use the Preview Projector, it is a full 1080p rendering/matches the actual source. However, when I do the fullscreen projector (source) option, it appears to be outputting downscaled to 480p resolution.

Is this expected, and if so is there anyway to get it to project at full resolution to another display? While fullscreen projector (preview) is proper resolution, it has all of my other sources ontop of the source in question.

Any/all help/info is greatly appreciated. Thanks!

Preview Projector has the same resolution like your output resolution in this case 1280x720.
Thanks for the response, and yep, I totally get that. The issue with preview projector is all of my sources/overlays are displayed, instead of just the Blackmagic source.

This is why I was using Fullscreen Projector (source) rather than the preview projector. Anyway to get it to be 720p instead of low resolution?

Sure thing.

Here's the fullscreen projector (preivew). Totally normal 720p. (View in original size, then look at the text for Enter/Back, or the O next to back)

Here's the fullscreen projector (source), very much a lower resolution (View in original size, then look at the text for Enter/Back, or the O next to back)

Both screens are 1080p, but one is source 1080p second is 720p rescaled to 1080p and looked blured.
I'm not 100% sure I follow. Both screens are 1080p because I used fullscreen projector on a 1080p display. If I do windowed preview, the source projector starts out at a *much* smaller size than the preview projector does.

This effect does not change if I change the canvas/preview sizes to 720p. Source projector always starts around 480p.
