It works fine if you can secure the connection and have time to fiddle with the DVI->HDMI detection issues (it does not always determine if you are sending YUV or RGB data correctly).

For a studio its 100% fine. For a club/performance setting where you are VJ'ing and don't have time or control of the environment, it would make me nervous. Thus, me keeping it at home. But its amazingly useful for what it does, its just not an a amazing solution as a mixer or input for VJ;ing style setups. That said, there really isnt much I am aware of. I eagerly await Toby Sparks DVI mixer :)

You want an actual physical video in? If you want HD, get a Decklink Intensity card on a desktop or a Matrox MXO2 Mini for a laptop with an express card 34 interface. The iMac is kind of unfortunately not very expandable.

If you want SD, you can use a DV camera and an analog SD output, or a DV digitize like an ADC55/110. There also exists some software to go DV out to DV in from Mac to Mac (sans intermediate device), but they can be finicky. Someone may have better suggestions in that department.

If you don't want any hardware or external connections, then sounds like you want to stream video over a lan or some such? What do you want to do exactly?

Howdie everyone.

What is the easiest way to get a video input on say, my laptop into a quartz composer app running on my iMac?

We have tried using quartz composer visualizer, thinking I could make one the 'dedicated processing composition' and the other the composition file and then send the image across, but I can't find much of anything on Quartz Composer Visualizer (it doesn't even have a help option) and nothing on how to make a 'dedicated processing composition'.

Any ideas?

Cheers
