Resolume Forum

Hey Leon,

Are you running this setup on the computer you described in your other post?

• intel core i-5-2500k cpu
  3.3ghz
  32gb ram
  Window 7 professional 64bit
  2 - 1TB HD @ 7200 rpm
  Blackmagic Designs Intensity Pro Card
  2 - AMD 1gb Radeon HD 6850 output cards

A 6-projector installation can be tricky and based on your other post you don't seem to have a great system to run it so can you describe your complete setup so that we can help you figure out what's the problem?

• control monitor(s) and resolution
  projectors type and resolution?
  analog or digital signal
  type of adapters (passive or active)
  type of cables (VGA, DVI, HDMI, SDI, HD-SDI, etc...)
  cable lengths
  how is everything connected on your graphics cards
  signal distribution breakdown including amps, splitters, etc...

Also, can you send the advanced output XML file you've created and saved? You'll find it in the following folder Documents>Resolume Arena 4>Presets>screensetup

Also, to follow up on my previous post, you have saved your advanced outputs, right? If you just close the advanced output window you lose everything you've done.

I'd say its the projector
I know for certain christies will default to the first preset made if the signal is lost.
you have to manually reload your current preset to get your projector setting back to how they were.

I have experienced the very same problem,however it wasn't resolume 's fault,it was an auto resize option available in the projector menu, what always started to readjust(blank blue screen,signal,image left and right positioning attempt) after long periods of black screen followed by the visuals

Are you running this setup on the computer you described in your other post?

Yes. These are the same system specs.

Can you please provide me with specs for a system that can handle such an installation.

Can you describe your complete setup so that we can help you figure out what's the problem?

control monitor(s) and resolution

control monitor
1920x1080
HDMI

projectors type and resolution?

(6) Infocus IN2114
800x600

analog or digital signal

Analog

type of adapters (passive or active)

Passive

type of cables (VGA, DVI, HDMI, SDI, HD-SDI, etc...)

VGA to Cat5 Baluns

cable lengths

100ft cable lengths

how is everything connected on your graphics cards

Card 1- XFX Radeon HD6850
projector 1- 800x600 -display port to VGA
projector 2- 800x600 -DVI-I to VGA(HD-15)-passive

Card 2- XFX Radeon HD6850
projector 3- 800x600 -display port to VGA
projector 4- 800x600 -DVI-I to VGA(HD-15)-passive
(using a Matrox Triple head) 2400x600 -DVI-D
projector 5 on Matrox card- 800x600 -DVI-I to VGA
projector 6 on Matrox card- 800x600 -DVI-I to VGA

signal distribution breakdown including amps, splitters, etc...

None. All runs are home runs to the cards

Also, can you send the advanced output XML file you've created and saved? You'll find it in the following folder Documents>Resolume Arena 4>Presets>screensetup

Will do. Is there anything else that I need to do?

I always use the save and close option.

Auto Image: Forces the projector to reacquire and lock to the input signal.
This is useful when signal quality is marginal.

This is your problem i bet. Seriously, I've chained projectors with the same image and all of them shoot skewed images different then the others with auto image. You might even be able to just hit the auto image button abunch of times on the remote until it works.

I've had problems with this behavior and budget projectors.

just so you guys know,
auto image works best with a test card
Christie recommend the edges of the screen are white and it contains pure RGB CMYk areas to ensure the best calibration..
needless to say, it doesn't work with digital signals
