    Madmapper works with usb video cards?!!

    by GoncaloPires » Thu Nov 28, 2013 10:21 pm

    Hello all,

    Does anybody know if madmapper works with those usb to dvi or vga external cards?!
    I want to output three projectors from Madmapper but wanted to try something cheaper than the matrox triple head2go to test some stuff!

    If anybody has already tried those usb video cards please say something, also if you could advise what usb video cards to use and if they run smooth it would be a great post to the community.

    Thankx in advance!
    Cheers.
    G

    these cards are not openGL compatible, they usually use the CPU software renderer.
    So no, it is NOT recommended.
    If you still want to get one, you better borrow one from somebody to test it first.
