ViDock

Post by digital:snot »

searched the forum for"ViDock" and was surprised to not find an entry.

now that resolume is largely GPU intensive, i am interested if anyone has re birthed and old laptop (or suped up a non-gaming laptop) with a supervideo card using one of these products:

and to the Resolume team: would there be a performance enhancement by outputting Res:Ave through a ViDock while using the GPU of the onboard videocard for the interface? (or do they need to coexist on the same card output+interface)

There is another interesting product here: http://www.cubixgpu.com/. But I guess this is Overkill.

There's also the option of a DIY ViDock, which gives you a cheaper, more flexible external video card for your laptop... although there's no enclosure :?

I'm trying to decide between this and the Matrox Triple Head 2 Go

seems like he likes it, except for the 24 hr setup time ;) I'm thinking the triplehead2go card is the way I should travel....

ehm? really? these are two completely different products.

ViDock >> Adds a full graficcard to your notebook (Own GPU)

MTH2Go >> Simulates a very large screen to your graficcard and cut and send the input signal to two or tree outputs. (No extra grafic performance)

Does anybody have tested this case with Resolume 4 (on a macbook pro) and 2 graphics cards to be provided with 4 outputs to plug four projectors?
