Default 2 Cameras in a scene!

Hi, I'm 15 and i'm from Italy, I use this post to introduce myself to the community...I've followed this site for a very long time, but I write only now because i need your help only now XD.
But my question is: Is it possible to render a video (only one) with two cameras??... I mean, to make a video from two different wiews at the same time... Did you understand??
Thank you in advance

PS I'm sorry if my english is not so correct, but, as I said, I'm not from an english speaking country.

EDIT: just to inform: I have LW 9.0

you cant do it in lightwave directly, but the is a 3rd party plugin somewhere out there that does allow it- I just need to try look for it again.

Welcome to simply lightwave by the way!!

Ok... Thank you for your reply!
But I remember (not very well XD) a video in wich he (the maker of the video) assigned to an object (maybe a cube) as many cameras as the polygons of the object and when he hit F9 in the image there were different views of the scene. So I only need a two polys object to assign it two cameras. If I remember wrong (probably XD), I have to find that 3rd party plugin.

oh yeah, thats a proton video- I thought you were refering to rendering out an animation where you render the scene out from the perspective of the first camera, then switch to the perspective of the second a few frames on. If I understand you correctly, what you want is the CCTV shader, which does ship with lightwave.

heres the link

Oh thank you, during these days I was not able to use a computer and I won't be able to use it for a long time...
Can you post also the name of the plugin that switches camera (it's a useful one!)?
According to what i read on the internet I think that the CCTV plugin it's the one I was looking for, thank you again! Unfortunately i won't be able to try and use it..
