Re: Getting Video From Mac to Projector
The easiest way is to use an analog signal like VGA. Digital signals don't take well to traveling long distances.
I'd probably stick with the DVD player, but located backstage, and a video switcher and monitor back there.
The real attractive solution is Renewed Vision's ProVideoPlayer, but it's a $700 program. Really spiffy, but still $700, aimed at the church production market.
Alternatively, I believe (and I've been meaning to test this lately but never have) VLC under Linux can do exactly what you want, for free. I've never tried to see what it does under MacOS; I guess I could do a quick try.
Is this at TA? If you guys are in rehearsal tonight, I'd be happy to swing by.
