I am wondering if it is possible for Magic Lantern to output to both an HDMI connection and to the LCD. I couldn't figure it out and I'm wondering if it's even possible.I need the camera operator to be able to see what they are doing, but also be able to send a feed to the director at the same time. Yes, I realize I could split the signal, but I don't want to buy more equipment if possible
 
No. not possible via magic lantern at its current version. This is only possible on 5D3 which is via canon firmware not ML.
 
Ok that's what I thought. I ended up purchasing a $180 7" HDMI monitor that mounts on the side of the camera. I also bought an HDMI splitter so I can have a feed for my director.
 
One way to use two monitors is to use DSLR Controller for android phone tablet. They also have wireless capability using two android devices. eg. phone to tablet.
