Thanks, Al & John, for your feedback. Glad to hear it is "do-able". I am in the process of putting together a plan for this project, and will use some of the suggested specs you guys shared.

Al - thanks for the invitation to see your samples. I am in NC, so NY is a bit of a drive, but I will keep it in mind if I am in the area!

Thanks again.

Posted: Thursday, 05/03/2007 -- by Alan. Subject: Multi-screen Video Presentation with Scala?

Hi... I have a client that is currently running a 3 screen presentation in a theatre - 3 different projectors displaying content from 3 different DVD players that are frame-accurate timed to create a full cool presentation spanning all three screens.

Problem is, sometimes the discs get scratched (throwing off the whole presentation), or the DVD players to not get in sync, and the whole thing takes a lot of steps to get started. They want to have it all running from one source so it is easier to run and update in the future.

I have worked with Scala for a while, and know its capabilities as far as displaying video files. My question is: If a high end PC is configured with three video outputs (high end video card, or multiple cards), can you create a large 2160 x 480 video presentation in Scala that would span across all three monitors (720 pixels wide each)? Will it handle such a setup, and can it play the video back smoothly?

I would really like to make this work in Scala, since I think the advantages are numerous, but don't want to start down that path if it is impossible to do. Any thoughts/suggestions/advice would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

The Scala Website requires that JavaScript (Active Scripting) be enabled.

Please go to Tools, Internet Options under the Menus. Select the Security Tab, then Custom Level button. Then click the Enable button under Scripting / Active Scripting. Hit OK, then OK again to exit requestors. You will know it's working when you see a "More" link in the links beneath the Tabs.

You can still use the website without changing this setting, but certain features will be disabled.
