Hi Terrence, thank you for your reply.

I am located in Dusseldorf.


Let me see if I can help you.  Live view is not a problem.  There is a  

preview function that allows you to see a live view of what the camera  

sees.  However, it's purpose is to let you see what the camera is  

seeing, while you control the program.  I don't believe it can be  

shown at full screen.


I would not mind a window's border.


However, you may be able to use Astro IIDC to control the camera and  

have the live view in another program, say iMovie active as a full  

screen display.  That would be ideally suited to live presentations.   

I will try that tonight.


This sounds very interesting to me! 

The question is: Is it really possible to use the same video stream with two different programs simultaneously? If so, I could also use Quicktime or BTV for live view as well.


Thanks

Tom
