I bought an Elgato Eyetv 250 and I currently have a Intel iMac and was wondering, if I had a second LCD screen connected to my computer could I put the TV on the second screen in full screen and still work on the main screen how would I go about doing this and is it possible

    I don't know elgato and apple handles those graphics memory writes, but on pc side many tv cards/programs only support writing to primary screen. So when you move tv program to secondary screen it only shows black. Hopefully it works better on apple. Of course you could move the other apps to secondary screen and continue working, but thats not the best solution.
