Short version: Does anyone know if the "Video Out" VGA of a projector is amplified or just a passive split?
Long Version: I've been asked to handle media for a Trivia night and because of the shape/size of the room, we will need 2 projectors. The projectors are being lent to me and I plan on buying the VGA I need since this will be an annual event. I plan on adding a simple 2 input VGA switch, but we won't have it for this year. My plan is to have laptop 1 running the PowerPoint go into computer one, and have laptop 2 with an excel sheet for scores go into computer 2. Than I'll have my iPad as a backup. The projectors will just be daisy chained. I'll have to switch inputs and it won't be very smooth, but hopefully workable as there isn't a budget for anything else.
