vertical video monitors

[Bob Bonniol]

Are you making media for those monitors ?

At the point where you are talking about formatting for custom arranged and arrayed Barco iLite tiles, you are unfortunately, working in a sphere of knowledge that makes my company competitive in the market. Generally you have to hire us to find that out.

Let’s just say it’s a good deal more difficult than what we have been discussing. And we haven’t even talked about the encoding stage or the show control/device control programming aspect.

Don’t mean to be sour grapes. If you are working for that client (LV), you will have to contact the end client or the system integrator to see if they will give you a spec.

Best,

thanks again
i’m not working for LV

i hope that the monitor is a 16/9 turned on it’s side
or that the company has some helpful tech people

I feel pretty confident for you that it is a standard 16:9 monitor. Anybody that would invest the money to do truly custom arrangements of LED is going to be advised by the installing company regarding the people and companies that are expert in formatting media for it, and will be strongly advised to use those companies. I mean it as no insult at all ! Monitors like that are heinously expensive, so people tend to gravitate to known experts…

But the 16:9 monitors on there side are becoming very common in retail, and there’s no real secret to making content for them, other than the usual secrets of skill, artistry, and technical knowledge.

Good luck, and have fun. It’s a blast when you make things in unusual shapes.

Cheers,
Bob
