Ok... I don't fully understand what your asking. You want to send live feed from your camera to two different monitors at the same time? or just one monitor and one to a PC ect. so that you can stream it later? or you want to stream it now online and to a monitor at the same time?

and can you send a link to the camera, I can't find it. Thanks! :)

So... If you are trying to record what you are live feeding to the monitor/monitors at the same time then just get some HDMI splitters and a portable video recorder and plug an HDMI cable to each monitor and one into the recorder. then you can upload the...

So... If you are trying to record what you are live feeding to the monitor/monitors at the same time then just get some HDMI splitters and a portable video recorder and plug an HDMI cable to each monitor and one into the recorder. then you can upload the video (from the portable recorder) to your PC and "broadcast on Ustream later".

Now if you were trying to put it directly on your PC (or stream directly through your PC to "Ustream") then, if your PC is capable, plug an HDMI cable from the splitter directly into the PC.

NOTE: ALL OF THIS WILL ONLY WORK IF YOUR CAMERA HAS AN HDMI OUT(I can't find your camera to see if it does or not).

Here is a splitter for HDMI:
Sewell splitter: http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/ASIN/B003I7DIGU/lockergnome

according to what your doing some of these might be helpful as well:
HDMI extension cables: http://www.amazon.com/HDMI-Extension-Cable-10-FT/dp/B00GBBSZFE/ref=sr_1_3?s=electronics&ie=UTF8&qid=1463348701&sr=1-3&keywords=hdmi+extension+cable

according to what your camera is you might need either of these:
Mini-HDMI to HDMI cable: http://www.amazon.com/AmazonBasics-High-Speed-Mini-HDMI-HDMI-Cable/dp/B00NH120NE/ref=sr_1_1?s=electronics&ie=UTF8&qid=1463349206&sr=1-1&keywords=mini+hdmi+to+hdmi+cable
or
HDMI cable: http://www.amazon.com/AmazonBasics-High-Speed-HDMI-Cable-Standard/dp/B014I8SSD0/ref=sr_1_1?s=electronics&ie=UTF8&qid=1463349302&sr=1-1&keywords=hdmi+cable

Now as far as streaming programs go (if thats what your looking for) OBS (https://obsproject.com/) is the best free program but if you are willing to pay for a program there might be some better one's out there.
