Greetings,
So the application of the system you want to build will kind of determine where best to go with it, are the 6 projectors being edge blended to make one continuous screen or some variation of that? if LCD Screen is that being used as your server operating monitor ? The screen for monitoring is that separate from the operation monitor... ?
So if it is that you area having the projectors blended, then best to either go with quadro series cards and sync them up with the hardware to do that, or you can go GTX 1080 Ti and generate 2 x 4K signals and go to 2 Datapath fx4s, which you sync with a blackburst or something of the sort...and that would take care of the projectors and the LED video wall, if you don't sync it all up then you will notice it right away that something is wrong when everything is plugged in and running ...
then you can get the 2 other screens from the 2 other outputs on the GTX 1080 Ti, operation and monitoring...
my 2 cents, bless up
Good questions.
Mapping I have:
Right Mapping - One Independent Projector (no blending)
Mapping Left - One Projector (no blending)
Mapping Downtown Down - One Projector (no blending)
Mapping Center Up - Two Projector (with blending)
LCD monitor is for me to work on resolume.
Another monitor is to see what's coming out in resolume composition - OPTIONAL
My budget is limited. I just have 2k € for system.
I have also to use the infrastructure that is installed (rj45 + extended HDMI network cables for each projector, I can not use the Datapath fx4s, the price of fx4 is also high)
They advised me to buy a 1080Ti for processing, and then another lower graphics card for more outputs. Is this possible and works well?
Can you help me with more information about these sync problems?
I've done some Blending times with:
resolume
- two projectors
- a 1070Ti
Everything worked fine, everything worked.
I have a bit of fear that the computer haven’t enough processing when I want to build some individual slices
Thank you very much for your help.
