More and more of our TV screens are being replaced with LED screens. These have custom dimensions (eg. 6000px by 92px). Currently we create a 1920x1080 layout that consists of 4 1920x92 regions. This layout is sent to a player that outputs the image to a controller. The controller maps it to the led screen. Is there a way the create a 6000x92 layout that is automatically mapped to a 1920x1080 layout (dividing the original layout into the 1920x92 regions) that can then be sent to a player ?
Presuming this is Windows, you can make any resolution you want in the CMS, so you’d create a resolution as required, design your layouts using that, and then run multiple player versions, positioning them on the screen as required using the Display Settings Profile or Display Settings overrides. Each player will render in its designated part of the screen and be sent by the controller to your LEDs.
Looks like a solution to try, however I do see 2 caveats: most led controllers (including the ones we’re using) only have 1 input hdmi connection. Presuming I can find a controller with 2 inputs, how do I sync the 2 players, making sure the content (eg. mp4 movie) is played correctly. (to be complete, I’m using Android DS Devices as players)
