you can easily export the entire output of keynote as a movie - all transitions are rendered into the movie.
Powerpoint never used to do this correctly.
i used apple intermediate codec recently to do this - and it looked great.

Hello Richard,
That sounds like a great approach for shows that will flow at a predetermined pace. I was kind of hoping for a solution that could be more beneficial to a real time environment with a presenter on stage going at their own pace. I know that we could potentially do a series of movie files from Keynote and simply cue them and react to the presenter as a Power Point operator normally would but this would require a great deal of preproduction time and be very difficult for modifications. I am not looking for a quick fix just to make a particular show work, I am hoping for a tool that can provide us a new direction in how we are approaching our productions.
Thank you again,
Scott Riley

apple put something in their keynote export to indicate the slide points-
i havent yet looked properly into this-
I think they are using chapter tracks to indicate slide points-

other than that you could trigger keynote in some way itself using dmx or something like that-
by simulating keyboard/mouse presses.
this is possible using applescript and other similar techniques.
It is possible to send an applescript to a remote machine to step through slides.
using this kindof thing-

there is also a more remote possibility it might be possible to capture the screen in realtime.
I think that we are kind of going off point if I am understanding you correctly. I hope to be able to port keynote through Catalyst in much the same way that we can take in a video input. The live output of the Keynote application would be ported into a Catalyst layer to be integrated along with all other Catalyst media and effects.
I understand what you are getting at with a VGA capture of sorts but that is very difficult to do in real time from what I have experienced. I would like to be able to do this with much higher resolution presentations as well and I think that would rule out the remote capture.
Thank you,

Try one of these.....

.....allows you to import VGA (RGB up to 1600x1200) directly through FireWire and call it up as Live Input on any Layer.

This article says that mac books can output a dvi signal the intensity card can read
http://createdigitalmotion.com/2007/...ink-intensity/The Intensity was properly identified by my MacBook Pro, connecting the laptop?s output to the input of the card. Not all systems will be able to drive their external display at these resolutions; for example, our 12″ PowerBook could not output 1080p, interlaced video. Results will depend on the video card in your machine.
i did - but i think keynote really kindof takes over an entire machine.
especially at high resolutions.
i just checked it takes over both monitors - there dont seem to be any prefs allowing second screen in another application to work at the same time?
i have made some experiments in the past.
