Hi,

I've been using Capture Extended for laser and lighting console programming. I'm currently programming a tour that has a video wall and would like to see this video feed in Capture.

On the tour I'm using a GrandMA2 to send DMX to control video clips stored on an ImageCue. The ImageCue sends either HDMI or DVI to an Elation scaler, which sends video to the wall. Simple setup & show, no media server involved.

I have a separate networked computer used solely for Capture Argo. Is it possible to send the video feed from the ImageCue or the Elation scaler to this computer and into Capture? If this is possible, what hardware or software do I need for this?

Thanks for any assistance!

To view video in Capture Argo you either play the video in capture from a source file or you have to generate a CITP/MSEX video stream. I might have missed something, but I don't think the ImageCue or the Elation Scaler can generate a CITP/MSEX. There are many more, but a few media servers that can generate CITP include Catalyst and Arkaos.
