Will this be possible in the future? As an example, i have just done an out door movie for a client of mine. They had 2 x G8 projectors doing 2, 4 x 3 images for advertising before the movie, then they switched to the movie projector doing 16 by 9. I would love to be able to do this using 2 DL2's, (i know i can already using s video but read on). Instead of using the s video to take a feed from my DVD player, wouldnt it be great if i could load my DVD Movie into the DL2s and take an audio feed from the DL2's so when i play that file back i have the audio as well. Could this all ready be acheived being the internal computer has a sound card in it already????? Just means there is one less thing to set up, i.e. DVD players etc etc
if you take a computer out of a DL.2, it should boot up on it's own.
Nope. It won't run outside of a DL.2 fixture. We have to do that to maintain some level of protection from people trying to knock the product off! *Eyes Marty* So...Tell us Marty, what is it that you REALLY do? :poke:

Well, not if you take it COMPLETELY out...but if you leave it hooked up to the harnesses and leave the computer sitting next to the rest of the DL.2 it will work just fine.
I wasn't suggesting using the compter as a "stand-alone", but it will run as long as the proper connections are maintained to the rest of the unit. You still need DMX input for example...otherwise it is kind of a moot point!
