How do you switch video? Just change inputs on the monitor?

Yeah, and some monitors can be controlled to switch inputs from software, so you can setup hotkeys to do it just like a real KVM.

Yeah. It's not the greatest but KVM switches with video support drive up the cost quite a lot. I'll gladly press an extra button to switch the monitor input.

Thanks I figure its better quality to do this than try a kvm switch.
