Resolume 2 with my MacBook in BootCamp for debut performance

Post by SugaDario »

Hey guys,
i'm a complete beginner to all this and i have organised a techno club night in belfast so i have two weeks to get all my kit sorted. My harvesting and video archives have been going well and i have been practising my sets everytime i get the chance.

One problem though i have been reading around this site and others and there seems to be a recurring problem with the mini dvi output on the mac when used in bootcamp (windows xp). I have searched these forums for various answers no no avail. I am sorry if i am asking a previously answered question. I bought my macbook just before christmas and it is the latest OS X with Nividia graphics card. I was wondering if i would need anything else to effectively display my set.

I am using a mind dvi to vga adaptor for a projector and i am using resolume 2 (latest update). I will not be able to check if the set-up works until the day of the club night. To avoid any unforseen problems are their any drivers i need to download? Do i need any other equipment? I have a min dvd player on standby with clips from 1984, easyrider, space odyssy etc... on standby just in case but i would realy like my debut performance to go down without any issues.

Any other advice would be greatly appreciated. I have been harvesting most of my video from youtube and my own private dvd collection. The event is by invitation only so i shoulnt need to worry about copyright laws. Have anybody else encountered any problems with a similiar set-up? The last thing i want is for it all to go tits up on the night.

Any advice would be greatly appreciated, nice one.

you may have issues getting your secondary output working. ATI's bootcamp/xp driver sucks

Hey, used to use my macbook pro with boot camp running resolume 2.3 and 2.4
Never had any problems, i just had an apple DVi to VGA convertor but any one would do the same thing, no problems with resolume what so ever, and i used thats et up at festivals, big clubs in london and never encountered a crash.

Try testing your set up at home by using a computer monitor as the second out put from your Windows bootcamp.
