Hauppauge Colossus

How would you see anything? The Colossus doesn't have any kind of HDMI passthrough.

Hello Virge,

from what I have seen on the wonderful internet so far, it seems like windows will just see the Colossus as another screen. if that's the case, I would just have to duplicate the screens.

that video is based on the older Hauppauge HD PVR, external unit without HDMI, but the concept should be the same... I think...
 
Ahh, that's a good point. In which case you'll want to be sure that the Colossus will accept 1080p. I know it records 1080i, but I'm not sure if it requires a matching signal. If it doesn't accept 1080p, then you'll run into problems with your plan.
 
thats pretty kick ass. could have used this years ago honestly. i wonder why the nvidia card doesnt work with it
 
Not sure if anyone cares, but maybe good info for people googling?
but I used a DVI to HDMI cable for final functionality testing before I sold the card, and my GTX 470 detected it just fine.

Also the Colossus can indeed record in 1080P, but the catch is only on desktop and in directX 9 mode.
