Twin View with Visualization

loxton · 11th July 2006, 12:59

Hi
I have been given a task to utilize a lcd projector to display visualizations on a very large screen, while playing mp3s through a 1000watt speaker system at my local football club on saturday nights. I believe that winamp will be suitable for this.
I have a old p3 1000ghz computer with 256mb of ram, a sound blaster live card and a nvidia tnt2 video card and 2 40gb hard drives at my disposal.
The LCD projector has Component Video input so i will need to get a another Video card, which can do this, and twin view would be good so that the visualizations can be on the big screen while the play list is on a normal crt monitor, from what i have read Winamp can do this. My question is which video card do you recommend to do this, this computer will be dedicated to this task only and will serve no other purpose.
Any advise would be appriciated

avs will probably be WAY too slow to be nice on that hardware.

MilkDrop works quite well on this system at the moment and thats with the tnt2 video card, hopefully with an upgrade of video it will work even better
