    Default How To: Use two screens at once

    I work on SM and use a mac. I want to switch over to a PC because most logitech cams are pc-friendly, and not meant for macs.

    However, I still want to use my mac. I love the OS just the overall feel.

    How can I stream from my PC, but use my mac to type during shows and ban people?

    Basically, I want to use two monitors -- just don't know how to do this between a mac & pc.


    I want to be able to control what's going on in the PC (the one that's connected to the cam) FROM my mac. is this possible?


    thanks in advance

    It sounds like Synergy might be what you're looking for. It allows you to use the mouse and keyboard from one machine to control another one as well.

    I've used it very successfully to control 2 windows machines, and it does say it works on mac as well. It can be a little complicated to set up, but if i recall, the website has a pretty easy to follow, step-by-step guide.

    Good luck!

    I dont think this is possible bc you will need to be open in ur chatroom to block and kick and you cant be in ur chatroom twice.

    I use multiplicity for the screen sharing
