Hows it going guys, i'm new here and have a couple questions, i spent some time looking around and didn't see what i was looking for so i figured i would ask.

1) Is the TH2go HDCP compliant, i really want dual monitors but want my blu-ray to work correctly as well. I asked over at EVGA's forums but no one knows.

2) IF its not can i have seen the software version but that requires 2 connections to the video cards, would that work with the new SLI way where you can have SLI enabled and have 2 monitors attached or not?

No matter what i'm getting a second monitor but would love to be able to have the screen stretched across both, with Nvidia's current solution the second monitor shuts off in fullscreen games which defeats the second monitor.

Thanks for your time.

I don't know why it took so long for nvidia to fix that problem when you go to fullscreen, the second monitor will go blank. ATI supports that function a long time ago. I hope Nvidia is going to address that problem soon.

You should go get a second monitor. You will love it. Probably, you'll get even more and more. lol! It's like a disease!

As the TH2Go digital has been out for a while I doubt it is HDCP, I never seen anything to say it is.

If your monitors have 2 HDCP DVI inputs then just plug both the TH and the direct cable to your centre monitor...presto HDCP centre monitor.

Although I have never used it Soft TH (from what i have seen) is not as good as hardware TH, but it is a hell of a lot cheaper! So stick with 2 cables of possible..hell you could even swap the output cable from into the TH to direct into monitor if you only have one DVI HDCP input. I did that when I had my 24" and 3x19" set up...I just swapped the cable if I wanted to play battlefield or whatever..easy just make sure you set 1280x1024 before you swap :)

wow that was some fast responses LOL. The monitors i have are the samsung 245bw so only one connector, but i guess it would be easy enough to switch between the TH2go and the monitor itself LOL.
