In MPC you will need to go into Opions, Playback, Output and set video settings, and choose Direct X as your output device, and select Display 2 from the drop down in ‘Full Screen Output’. I am sure VLC would work, but I had only so much time to try and learn all this!!
I tried a number of different players (including VLC) but for me, I really only got what I needed from MPC.

The projectors were between 50 and 80 feet from the desk, and had no issues.įor actual playback I used the free (and superb) media player classic – home cinema version. These devices had no problem with the 1920 resolution. The projectors were at the far end of the hall, so we used three VGA to CAT5 baluns from Mcmelectronics – really neat little devices which allow you send VGA over cat 5.
Set the resolution of the graphics card output to 1920 * 480, and set the matrox for 3 x (640 * 480).

You need to make sure that whatever card you use, that you can set the resolutions of the two outputs independently, and that at least one output can go up to 1920 in resolution.Ĭonnect your PC monitor to the first output of the graphics card – this will be for cueing up and preparing for playback.Ĭonnect the matrix triplehead to the second output. I used a PC with a graphics card with two separate outputs. Playing the image for the show was a little trickier, as I wanted to be able to cue up the video and then when ready, have the images displayed on the projector. When rendering, I rendered to 1920 x 480 wmv. It did take a little bit of practice, but in the end it worked out fine. This is very easy to do with the pan/cropping facilities. In VMS, I made sure that each of the images was restricted to its own region (LHS, CENTER or RHS). To do this I set the projectors to be each 640 x 480, and then in Vegas I set my project properties to be 1920 x 480 – which gives a widescreen in effect of 3 x (640 x 480). Each screen had to have a different image appear on it, in time to the music, so at any one time there were three different images on the screens – one image per screen if you follow… I used a matrox triple-head, VMS, and movie-player home cinema and it all worked out fine.ĭoing a school show, I wanted three screens – one on either side of the stage, and one above it.

I will say that there is very good professional equipment out there which will do this really well but I was on a budget (a very tight one) – and I was really pleased with the outcome.
It was all new to me – there was a huge amount of experimenting. I have just been through a very long exercise to achieve exactly this, and taking a lot of advice from this (and the live events) forum – I came up with something that worked really, really well. This is going to be a length post – but if you don’t mind a bit of experimenting…
