| The problem is it's not an easy thing. You're suddenly having to make sure that transitions stay in sync, videos play simultaneously, the frame rate doesn't suffer, etc. It gets even worse when the elements on the screen are different. And how do you code the user control of it? The interface suddenly gets ridiculously complicated because it has to have options for sending various bits of media to various places, when the whole goal is to make it as easy as possible... and the song editor gets REALLY weird.
It's something I've been thinking about non-stop for the last few weeks (I'm considering writing a Mac-based multi-screen program like you've never seen before...) and I have some ideas, but my gosh it's hard to do this and maintain simplicity, both code-wise and as far as the user's concerned. I can see the basic interface in my head (it uses different modes and drag-and-drop to achieve everything), but the code behind it will probably kill me. |
