Yeah, technically all screens are custom made. Most of the high end companies (Draper, DA-Lite, etc) keep very little stock and make screens as needed.

For the matrix function I would suggest you look at the new "HDMI over IP" devices.

Hey everyone! If I wanted the ability to have live video feeds on all screens (also able to change which feeds go on which screen[s], and be able to change to one feed across ALL screens). Aswell as being able to display graphics on the different screens or overlay lyrics etc what would be my best setup solution? (sorry if this does not make sense)

Depends on quiet a few variables really; do you want three different video feeds, or just say one feed to the outer screens, one to the inner screens?

Depends if your running a system that is globally genlocked or not, depends on how many cameras you have, depends on what vision switcher your planning on getting, and weather you can afford one with a ME bus or not.

Yours moving into reasonable complex ground here, so be prepared. I've always been a fan of doing it your self, but if you don't fully understand the things i've mentioned above, then it may be time to call in someone with a bit more experience.

Yeah, you are looking at setting up a rather complex system there. I would consult a professional.

Hi all! thanks soo much for your help! You dont know how much your professional advice is of value to our team here.

Now I understand that with PP and Pro Video Player (with matrix triplehead2go) you can control what background goes on each of the 3 screens? as well as span the background across all three screens?

What is the best way to achieve this if I wanted this capability but with maybe 2 Live video feeds? Does Pro Video Player work with Live Video Feeds? What I mean is can Pro Video Player change the background tiled or the span across all 3 with a Live video feed(s) [2 feeds the max]

Again your advice is very valuable to us here as we love hearing from those who are doing the same work in the kingdom for god

We use a matrix switcher - it allows you to connect multiple sources to multiple projectors (ours is 4 in, 4 out)... and then choose what input goes on what screen. You can, for instance, choose to put the same source on all projectors, or put a diffeent source on each projector, or any combination you choose. That, combined with a matrox triple-head to go, could give you what you're asking for, and it's not that complicated.

However, adding live video is, if you've never worked with multiple cameras before. In addition to the above matrix, you should get a traditional camera switcher. It's possible to make a matrix switcher work for live video feeds, but I would strongly discourage it. There is software to put up a live video feed (ProPresenter does that), but it doesn't give much control over it. Never get software to do a job that hardware can do (if you can afford it).

If you want a single shot to span 3 screens, like a ultrawide-screen video, I guess you'll need a scaler/scan converted that spilts your input into 3 outputs, and chops the bottom and top half of your video feed off. I don't know of a product that does this off the top of my head; suggestions anyone?

Provideoplayer may be able to do this; can't say i've ever tried.

Oh wow, live video spanning? Hmmmmm... I have actually never done that before. I have only done graphics spanning.
