Are you wanting to feed in several different sources and switch between them
live? If so then you'll need a mixer to input them in and output that to the
projector. If only one at a time then a good video editing app such as
premiere will output at the same time as input if the pc is up too speed.

Please forgive if this is a very simple question. I want to take a live

(and direct) input from a DV camcorder to my PC so that I can then show the
output via a data projector. Unfortunately, it must be through the PC and
not direct to the data projector as I am being asked to use multiple video
inputs. All suggestions welcome.

Best to have the projector set to the main monitor, as generally only this
one can show video overlay.
What apps do you have to use for video? May be easier than me trying to tell
you what to do with something you don't have/can't get. It'll need to
preview the video input at full screen, or near enough.

Thanks Graham. No only from one source, but I need to be able to cut
between other "sources" such as PowerPoint and DV files that will already
be loaded on the PC's. Being a simple fellow, I was just planning to
ALT-TAB between windows. I do not need to record the live feed, just pass
it direct from the firewire input to the screen (and thus to a data
projector). Does this change any thoughts.

TY again Graham. I can access pretty much anything Microsoft under an Enterprise Agreement. If there are good apps that allow a trial period, this is possible; otherwise I need to stay in the domain of freeware. Currently, the only app I have any experi
ence in is MS Movie Maker. I feel I can learn pretty rapidly when needed.

Video signal will be split through an amplified video splitter to the projector and the PC CRT. PC will contain a combination of PowerPoint and previously recorded DV files. This set up will be done at 2 PC's to allow dual screen projection for our High
School graduation night. We used the dual screen projection last year and now every man and his dog want a slice of the action!

All help gratefully recieved
