Multiple Projectors on a display, playing different videos?

[jamesssydney]

Afternoon all,

I have an existing projector connected to my show. I'm looking to add second projector but want to run a separate video to the one first? Both videos will be synced to the same audio and I'm hoping to run both videos at once. I'm running my show from X scheduler on a windows PC- Windows 10 Pro

Cheers

James

yeah just plug the projectors into different monitor ports in your computer and drag the virtual matrix over there?

Hi Darylc do I need an FFP to do this, or can I simply plug directly from my desktop?

I’ll check it out tomorrow. Is there a how to guide around at all?

@darylc sorry for further clarification I already have one data projector setup in Xschedule. The video file is loaded along with the sequence. The bit I need assistance with is setting a second projector which will share the same sequence but run a different video. If this need to a be a virtual matrix no problems but how do I set this up in Xschedule? O

Sorry @jamesssydney I don't know how to do it, I just know it can be done. I haven't used xschedule in 5+ years. Try the zoom room when there are lots of people on, maybe Saturday mornings.

 

[darylc]

maybe @Max Jago can help you?

Thanks @darylc
I've managed to set up a VM in Xschedule with a size of width 192 x 108, but when I play the sequence via Xschedulr only top 1/10 of the butterfly effect is showing. I've attached a screen shot of Xschedule, the xlights set up and the VM matrix
