This is the Windows/PC counter part of this question.
I want to clarify that I am not talking about connecting a VGA monitor to a computer. I'm referring to plugging in a VGA output in to my computer. I want the VGA feed to show up as a video device, so that I can run a projector's feed through UStream and be able to switch between that feed and the camera that I am using. The computer is a Lenovo Thinkpad.
What hardware is needed to digitize a VGA input in real time to send for broadcast?
Thanks so much, Scott! I was actually just looking at those frame grabbers from Epiphan. I'm will wait a couple days for more answers, then accept yours. – daviesgeek – 2012-05-07T17:58:13.320
Check the new-egg link, it is always smart to shop around as sometimes the most expensive thing is not always the best thing. – Scott Chamberlain – 2012-05-07T18:00:20.200
I absolutely will! Thank you so much of your help! Side question: can I take a VGA feed, convert it to HDMI, then run it to an HDMI to USB cable? – daviesgeek – 2012-05-07T18:34:28.233
Yes but the cost of the VGA to HDMI converter + hdmi capture card may be more than just the cost of the VGA conveter alone. – Scott Chamberlain – 2012-05-07T18:36:58.220
Ok, I will look into it. I just wanted to make sure it was actually possible. :-) Thanks again! – daviesgeek – 2012-05-07T18:39:07.343
