[Mask causing issues]

Watchout 6.2.1 12 output system (split between three machines) When I go to apply mask to a display I get an unhandled exemption and the show file gets corrupted. Re open saved show and start over. When I attempted to move a piece of media in the main time line Watchout starts reporting errors rapidly, object not found, tween not found and the like. No effect on show and going online and offline stops it. Any thoughts on what might be causing it?

+1 on this please!!

Sorry for the delayed response, I was able to get 4x4K out of the wx5100, 7100 and 9100 @60. Just needed to use better cables it seems.

Went Display Port direct into our X80 and the 4K looked great. 

 

Thanks Miro

Which version of windows 10 did you test and which AMD drivers? If hardware sync is not important then 4x 4K works fine with W5100 or better (probably works fine with W4100 too but I haven't tested that one).

 

Here is a picture from my tests running 4x 4K 60 Hz using AMD W5100 in a Win10 x64 Enterprise LTSB server.

Also make sure to run the same display mode on all displays.. Some cards seems to default to using 8-bit color depth on some ports and 10-bit color depth on others. Set all to 8-bit.

Well I am off to the shop then to retest. I am running a modified version of Win10 using NTlite to strip out all the "fun stuff". 

[Experience with WX 9100 and S400]

Which OS? I haven't tested the sync card properly but in Win10 you will have 6x 4k outputs. There is a bug in AMD's win7 drivers preventing more than 3x 4k DirectX9 surfaces.

In my testing with the WX9100 on Wndows 10, WO 6.1.6 will not even open with 4 4K monitors connected. 3 is okay which is the same for the WX7100 and 5100 cards. Do you know of a trick to achieve more then 3

[4K 30/60 Output limit?]

thanks David, shame its one of those low priority things for AMD, it would be great if they could fix that issue. Now that CPU and SSD tech has caught up we could actually use four and five 4K outs. 

 

Thanks

[4K 30/60 Output limit?]

Thanks, can you elaborate more on the AMD side of the issue, using other software the AMD card will output 6 4K streams, DirectX 9 makes sense as the bottle neck in the equation. 

 

Thanks

[4K 30/60 Output limit?]

Question for the group, where does the limitation on the number of 4K outputs originate. Is this a Windows 7/10, DirectX, or Watchout Limit. Using a new WX9100 I can get three 4K@60 stable under the current WO release on Windows 10. As soon as I add a forth output Watchout gets very unhappy. Any thoughts would be welcomed.

 

Thanks

 

 

[WO5 and Xkeys]

Alex, I just started working on a hybrid MIDI/TCP controller for WO 5/6 with x-keys. Using Just Macros on windows. Maybe we can collaborate and come up with something useful!
