Multiple monitors and capturing

[mmac911]

I am interested in getting a new video capture card, but I also am interested in setting up a multiple monitor system.

Is there any card (in particular or general) that will serve as both?

All I know about multiple monitor setup is that you need a 2nd video card from your first. I was thinking i could combine these two into one card

Thanks for reading, any replies are appreciated

How about removing the profanity from the bottom of your post? Is it really necessary?

[mmac911]

Yes its a quote from a movie, removing "fucks" from the quote would make it less funny. And I didn't know you were a moderator... is it really necessary for you to comment about other people? Does it offend you? You live in America you should know what free speech is. I geuss your mommy dosn't let you see movies rated above PG (it must have been tough getting her to let you to go see "Finding Nemo")? How about you shut up and get lost?

Maybe the profanity is the reason nobody has replied to you?
So profanity is funny???????
So jdizzy40 "Should know what free speech is"???? Like saying your language is unacceptable. So I guess that is not free speech?
Then you go on to to make personal insults.
Looks like everyone has shut up.

I think the quote is funny.

Anyway, Matrox makes something like that, or maybe Canopus... I saw it in the new B&H catalog.

You people seriously need to lighten up- ****

If you would have seen the movie you would apreciate the quote (yes I can tell you have never seen The Big LeBowski). Its not any kind of sacreligious quote- though it dosn't make a difference whether it is or not.

Saying my speech is unacceptable is your ******* opinion

But I sure as hell am not gonna take any of your shit about the way I speak to please you all. Because it is my right. You are entitled to your opinion- and I respect that. However, when someone tells me to do something different it is no longer a mere opinion but a command. I dont appreciate being told what to do by anyone unless I am harming someone.

Basically you should worry about yourself don't tell others what to do.

Does anyone else out there feel me? They are trying to make me look like a bad guy because I say **** to much...

Oh well... **** them

PS- Nice pic BJ_M

Rob, what movie is that from?

Mac,

First, you don't need multipl;e video cards for multiple monitor setups. The best I've seen lately is the Matrox Parhelia card which can drive up to 3 monitors (3 VGAs or 2 VGAs and a real-time preview NTSC or PAL monitor). It got great reviews from DV Magazine, Videomaker magazine and Camcorder and Computer Video magazine (well, at least on 2 of them, don't remember exactly which).

As for capturing, that is where you may need another card.

If you really want one card that does it all, your best bet would be to check the latest ATI All-in-wonder cards, I'm just not sure they can drive more than one screen.

Rob, what movie is that from?

The one and only, Big Lebowski. A film I can watch over and over without getting bored.

Thanks for the reply lechtin- it is much apreciated. I will probally buy a card capable of supporting multiple setups and just get the vid cap seperatly. Once again thank you.

-Finally I received some positive replies lol
