Two different edge-blends with 6 WatchPax follow-up. We finally worked out the solution for our installation by separating the program into two programs of the same length with two different Clusters on the same Ethernet network. So one program was dedicated to the Projection Design F-32 projectors and the second one to the Mistsubishi projectors. It has been running flawlessly in the Museum of Civilisation in Quebec City for the last month, the WatchPax work as advertised! By the way, the F-32 does not have a edge-blend feature by itself, Barco sells an external device to do this but it is quite expensive and you need one per projector. Thank you all, Jacques

Thank you very much Walter, you made my day! This is a brilliant solution to my problem, with the added benefit of black level compensation. And thank you Mike, I look forward to work with version 6.

Hi, I am in the process of setting up 3 different clusters of projectors within the same exhibition hall. We are using 6 WatchPax2 units with 2 different types of projectors. One is a 5 HD (16% overlap) panorama with 8K Projection Design projectors, on which I had to tweak the overlap curve to get a good uniform blend. We will shortly begin setting-up 2 more pans using short-throw 3 K Mitsubishi projectors, these 2 screens have different overlap : one is 20%, the other 50% and share one of the 3 WatchPax2. All three projections need to be in synch so they were programmed in the same Show, but as far as I know the edge-blend tweak applies to all of the displays simultaneously, does it not? So, chances are that my edge-blend on Screen 1 will not work adequately on my other screens… Is there a way to program the WatchPax with different edge-blend presets? Or should I run two different programs triggered from an outside device? Thank you for your insight, Jacques

I know Watchout can be upgraded just by running the new installer but is it better to do a clean un-install when the new version is mostly bug-fixes? Thanks
