I've got an Acer 23" touch screen connected to a HD5870 E6 and it's never failed me. I use 12.10 driver.

Anywhere in Canada selling the MV boxes?

that's awesome!
if i'm ever in china i'm coming to your office!

having the 4x1 and the 5x1 image the same is a good idea, a simple splitter or as we talked about VGA over CAT5 will work for you.

trying to run both this ultra wide 4/5x1 content and the 2x1 content from the same computer is not going to work! you need two systems, either a second computer ...

@stickygreen : i've search for Roku but i cannot figure how to play extended 5x1 video with that without an expensive system. The digital signage solutions are way over my budget.



It's going to cost less in the end, trust me, this is what i specialize in. Fixed/permanent and mobile ...

Sounds like you should be looking into a digital sign player solution.
check out the brand ROKU, and there brightsign series. it's all inter-connectable, and scalable, it will suit your needs, and will work without problems.

hey Timdas, if your looking to display one long extended video, you should look into this software : http://resolume.com/ It will allow you to que up multiple video's, trigger them and manipulate them in real time. (the forums are full of helpful people)

I use it all the time with my Eyefinity ...

Just look for a Matrix, it's a pretty common piece of pro video gear, they come in VGA, DVI, HDMI, BNC, whatever flavour you may want, and they come with all sorts of input/output number combo's, the one I'd be looking for if I were you would be an 8:4 DVI matrix, 8 inputs, 4 outputs, get a good ...

how is this any different than a Matrox Dualhead2go?

all mini DP - VGA adapters are active.

you cannot take a digital signal and turn it into an analogue signal without some form of processing. Every DP - VGA adapter is active.

thanks for the review Ab, I'm looking for the same thing..

Hmmm, i've been wanting to upgrade my 5870 E6

wonder how much it's going to cost..?

having to much RAM, is like saying you have to much money.... never going to happen!

there is a very good possibility that by using the VGA cable you are limiting your final screen resolution. If you can try and switch it to the DVI, give it a try.

nice work!

few things you'll find with a triple wide projection set up,

you'll need lots of space to accommodate throw distances, or get projectors with wide angle lenses, as you may have already figured out based on your Optima GT720 recommendation, If you do opt for wide angle projectors, you'll not be ...

somebody correct me if I'm wrong, but I'm pretty sure that all DP > VGA dongles are active, as DP is a digital source, you can't turn that into a VGA (analogue) signal without some sort of processing. Know what I mean, you cannot just send the digital data thru to a VAG connection, which is the ...

Just get a card with Eyefinity 6 and your good to go. as for projectors, If your looking to get full HD machines then you'll need to be concerned about throw distance, if you are OK with XGA, then, look into some of the short throw machines.

thanks for all the info duniek, and Keroppi. Like I said I'm interested in doing some similar stuff, but with all XGA projectors, so analogue Matrox cards work just fine for me. I doubt I'll have any issues after reading this thread.

your going to use 4 Analogue (VGA) dualhead2go's? I am interested to see if this works, and I have a need to do something similar, just want to know what gear your buying.
