• Two Video Cards & Hauppauge HD PVR
    4 replies, posted
I run a stream over at Justin.tv under Tkon and had some really awesome fans/community members donate $1,800 towards a new computer(5970, 930 i7). I built this bad boy up and got him up and running. The only problem is I'm having a hard time getting my stream to work. The way I did it before was with my old amd rig which had two 260's sli'd, but it had Svideo(8 pin HDTV) out and this allowed me to stream directly to my Hauppauge HD PVR. So it looked like this Computer (260 Svideo) -> (Svideo) Adapter (Ypbpr) -> (Ypbpr)Hauppauge HD PVR (Usb) -> (Usb)Laptop, which in turn streamed the hauppauge preview with software. Now my current computer only has two dvi and a single minidisplay port. I was wondering if I could possibly get an older ati card that has svideo on it and not crossfire it, but just put it in w/ the 5970 that I purchased and clone my monitor to the 2nd card. The only thing I can think of is to put the two 260's in my new rig and put the 5970 in my old till I figure something out. I know this is a huge waste of A) the 5970 in the old rig as it'll be bottle neck'd to all hell, and the two 260's in my new rig bottle necking it also. If you guys have any thoughts or suggestions please feel free to share them :0
Any thoughts?
[QUOTE=tkon;23830313]Any thoughts?[/QUOTE] Ended up just putting the 2 260's in the i7 rig till I can figure something out w/ the 5970.
Any ideas? Can I use two different type of video cards to clone two monitors?
