Taz Posted November 8, 2016 Report Posted November 8, 2016 Good day. I have taken over a setup of 4 Watchpax controlling 7 monitors in a row. If I try to stretch a video across the screens, they don't sync properly. I am wondering if it is just a setting I'm missing, or is it just that watchpax aren't meant to be in multi screen setups... Any thoughts or insights would be greatly appreciated. Thanks! Taz 0 Quote

WATCHPAX is meant for multi-screen setups. Could be the video is to much for a WATCHPAX to play, resolution, frame rate, progressive (preferred) / interlaced, codec and more important codec settings, all determine suitablity for WATCHPAX playback. If the movies is not choking the system, then network UDP multi-cast loss will result in very fast loss of synch. 0 Quote
Taz Posted November 10, 2016 Author Report Posted November 10, 2016 Thank you for that! I also was forwarded a very helpful file from Jim T giving more info on happy formats for watchpax videos. Between the two, I have a much better idea of how to go about this. I appreciate the quick responses from you both! Taz 0 Quote
