    I’ve installed the Intensity Pro.

    I have a Synchmaster Samnsung T220 monitor with RGB IN And DVI IN SLOT.

    I want to capture video from my PS3, so here’s what I did.

    Run a component cable from th3 PS3 into the breakout cables, the otherend of the break out cable goes into the Capture card.

    I run a HDMI/DVI cable from the capture card to the DVI slot on teh monitor. To do that I’ve had to take out the current cable which runs into the back of my PC to get the monitor working when I turn the PC on.

    I do have a HD AV component cable going from my Xbox 360 into my RGB in slot on the monitor, this cable splits with audio cables which go in my speaker and give me sound.

    The problem is that when I try and boot up PC or PS3 nothing comes on the screen at all.

    I’ve tested the PS3 out with just the HDMI/DVI cable and it works fine.

    I’m not sure how to proceed to get it to work. Any ideas?

    Have you checked you configuration in the Intensity Control Panel? I think you have to switch the input to analog if you’re using component…

    Yep, got it set to analogue. Thanks, still no luck.

    I’ve never used the monitoring feature on the Intensity… but I’m curious to find out if Media Express or a similar program must be running to pass through the card.
