multiscreen production

[David Bogie]

Never heard of a bonsai.
is this for a digital signage installation or a video installation. Huge difference in how you deliver. once you know what the playback engineers need, post back.

BonsaiDrive is a product of Rosendahl Studiotechnik

it’s a Harddiskplayer with several types of timecode chase mode’s
very nice piece of equipment plane simple and good. one of the nice things is that you can shift your timecode track in corelation with the content and you have the possibility to delay audio in the player.
i will deliver the content in 8bit-720×576 uncompressed quicktime since this is the only format the player can handle.

i’m more concerned about the pixel aspectratio of my main Canvas.
because i also have to take care of the physical gaps between the display’s

Thanks for the advise.

now i have to find a way to calculate the gaps.
but that won’t be the problem.

i guess your render option 1 is faster with more screens
and render option to is faster with fewer screens.

How many screens did you say? and wehre are they?
If it’s than a 4×4 grid of 16 screens, the mullions between the sets are not worth worrying about.

well

the displays are more configurated in a exploded view.
and have corelation with paintings on the booth’s wall.
so i definitly need gapping. in the last contact with the client.
they want to rotate the display’s as well. (help) i guess pixel aspect ratio will kill geometry when the display’s are rotated.
so th question about pixel aspect ratio is open again ;-(
