Sounds good and i'm very interested in the dual display option, does it have a tv/video in port to capture movieclips?
no the hercules doesn't have an 'in' of any sort. though you can mess with a tv card to do this - it works for a friend of mine just fine ; ) the next best solution for a leaner/meaner video signal is of course a video capture card itself - and i don't know how they fare under linux in that you may be able to get the card outputting svga / 32 bit colour etc but you may not get the capture facility therein. also video capture this way is reliant on a capture application to organise and or attenuate the input. lookup asus.com to see whether their range of dual head / tv out capture cards have linux support.
