Sonar, 3 screens and video

Hey all

I'm currently running X1 and using 2 computer screens. I have my workflow all set the way I like. However I'll be doing a bunch of video/movie scoring for the next few months and adding a video window messes up my workflow (I admit I'm spoiled)

I was wondering if anyone had any experience running Sonar with 3 computer screens? 2 would be dedicated to my standard workflow with the video running on the 3rd. Any info would be great. 

Thanks

    I don't run video in sonar, but I have run sonar before on 3 screens.  as long as you have 3 video heads and the power to drive it, I can't see that there would be a problem.

    I use Sonar for video scoring and use a third screen plugged on an USB graphic adapter for video monitoring with no problem. If your graphic card has 3 outs, you just need an additionnal screen, if not, you can use this : http://h10010.www1.hp.com...9-3913300-3913303.html

    Awesome!
    I was thinking I'd have to upgrade my video card. Didn't know I could get a USB device. 

    Thanks for the tip!
