Hey guys, which tool(s) are you using to create a working EDID file wider than 4096? Looking for a [email protected] edid file but my regular tool (Lightware LDC) isn't working on AMD Firepro W8100. thnx in advance!
Done this. No issues actually, none at all.
Watchpax won't give you edid management on the outputs and is lacking a framelock possibility on the outputs. Not my first choice for a large videowall. If you have the choice, why not go ahead and start doing some practical tests? You can spend all the time of the world on this forum asking for experience, but you will never get the perfect answer for your particular situation and everyone here capable of directing you would perform the testing themselves, regardless of their experience, before taking such a project into the live show environment. You'll discover soon enough and while you're at it: share your experience, we're all curious about your findings! Good luck!
Can you share a pic of the task list? Also, when changing the timeline properties, do you close all tasks and then perform an update? (And then open the timelines again).
I would never use mpeg2 or mpeg4 for 4K playback. Please use HAP codec for this and all will be fine (imo). I use adobe media encoder with repetitive success. The latest version appears to have lost the Native HAP support, but if you have a subscription, you can always install the CC2017 version. Otherwise, there is a third party solution available for this, by Disguise.
NVIDIA QUADRO SYNC - HOW TO ?
🤦🏼‍♂️ thanks for this completion! Can you shortly elaborate on why this (imo) additional setting is required? Would WO otherwise overrule gpu settings?
Any particular desired resolution? And number of simultaneous sequences?
I have experienced before that if you have less physical displays attached that you have assigned in the stage area, WO is looking for the assigned displays and refuses to continue. If you have any unused displays (unattached) displays in the stage area, make sure you disable them (uncheck "use this display") before continuing. Or, if possible, make sure you emulate the EDID's in the graphic card.
Hi MisterK, you don't have to do any settings for this in Watchout. You have to go into Nvidia control panel, advanced setting. Setup a sync master (one of the outputs) and slave all other displays and the rj45 port(s). On the next machine, use the incoming sync at the rj45 port for all displays.
What Leonard said! And ps: setup appears to be solid for years to come (specifically for gallery / museum setups where you normally have more than enough time to tweak content to be most efficient).
Hi Nikolai. So if I understand correctly, you have one front projector to capture several moving elements? In that case, using 3D mapping is no option whatsoever, since you'll be aligning one projector for one element, which will impact the position of each element in the picture (you can't align multiple elements with one 3D projector, since you'll be adjusting the virtual position of the projector, not the elements) So as I see it, only "conventional" corner pin tweaking would be your only option. Apart from that I doubt 3D Geometry would work as you can not tween this. (I suppose you might be able to copy the geometry and live paste during the show? But even if I could I wouldn't be going that route).
Hi Nikolai, will you be using one or multiple projectors (one for each stage element for example)?
