    Nope. Wish there was. Best you can do is point a webcam at the TV or broadcast monitor…or at the Program Monitor. Using another computer, of course.

    I think I’m going to experiment with a BM card going to a slingbox HD via HDMI. Should work great.

    I like that too but the current Slingbox, at least the UK models dont have HDMI only composite/component. But there is a brand new just released Slingbox 500, an odd looking twisted case design that does have HDMI in and out. Not available here yet but I think US just has it.

    best wishes

    I have been using a Slingbox for years this way, and it works great. I also have used my TiVo to record different versions to, then allow my producer/director to select what they want when I am not at the system.

    Now add remote desktop software and you can control MC remotely while watching a higher quality image via Slingbox on a different device.
