Hi All,
I'm working on our first show that is making "major" use of video projections. I have a pretty good handle on how everything works and a hookup but would love some input and advice.
The output is going to 2 older Eiki projectors on to two screens. I can send signal to them either with VGA or BNC.
The input is multiple sources. One is a live feed coming from an offstage location with a standard household camera, it has a RCA output and maybe a DV output. The second is coming from Qlab a series of precorded video clips. The computer will have a doublehead/triplehead attached to be able to provide separate output to either projector.
My question comes mostly from the switching. I am not familiar with how well Qlab handles video in video out? But if it worked well I could avoid having some sort of physical switcher. If I needed some sort of physical switcher what kind of signal would I send to the projectors and how would I convert either the computer or the camera into a compatible signal.
thanks in advance
