I have made some progress. First, you can only send Bino videos to the "primary screen" but luckily, on an Imac, you can define either screen as the primary screen. And turn off mirror mode. So I’m apble to watch perfect 3D, and I I were to insert a USB flash drive in there I can record it in perfectly centered original filmed ration on a 16x9 screen.
One problem, no sound. I tried plugging in l/r into a DVI+LR to HDMI converter, no go. I tried a DVI+ Toslink to HDMI. I tried routing the L/R directly in the Hauppouge, no dice. I tried routing the TOslink into the Turtle Beach X41 (even though it doesn’t have surround sound, that would come in handy for streaming suround sound games with only stereo recording, but still a big problem.
According to Haupauge they don’t test DVi+ either L/R or Toslink-> HDMI converters so they can’t guarantee they work.
Is it something wrong with my Apple? Is ti something wrong with m Hauppauge. I can get sound and video when piped directly in the TV. I can get video when piped in to the Rocket. Other HDMI audio and video capture together fine.
I don’t know i my old Apple can do HDMI directly. I’ll call Apple and see. Can Anew Apple do HDMI video and audio together to an external screen? If so, I’ll wait.
Any advice for a good DVI+sound-> HDMI converter that works well with A Hauppauge Rocket? I’m suspecting it’s the Rocket.
