Canon PowerShot G3 @ f/2.0
Wow, I can’t believe this works — I’d been wondering for a while, so I finally plugged both Macs to the capture box’s two Firewire ports, and… boom (the good kind).
I’m half-worried that it’d overheat and explode or something, but the purpose isn’t to watch TV on both at the same time, but switch from one to the other when I need to, now that the mini shares its screen with my Xbox.
Wonder what would happen with a camcorder. Or a hard drive (but that one I won’t try).
P.S. Oh, by the way, since I didn’t found an answer on Google when I looked: sharing a Formac Studio DV between two computers (Macs).

Bah Firewire est conçu pour daisy-chainer les appareils, y compris les ordinateurs, alors pourquoi pas :)

Euh ouais c'est moyen quand même d'attaquer le même périphérique sur deux ordinateurs

Je sais :)
Mais un boîtier de capture vidéo (ou un caméscope) c'est particulier, parce qu'il répond à l'insrtuction de lancement et après hop il diffuse sans se soucier de ce qui se passe.
