A video showing the differences between monitor setups and what vendors support which.
Gameplay footage is from The Legend of Zelda: Majora's Mask, recorded via Afterburner on Project64.

This is a great post, thank you! By the way, Suiken, I tried that ToastyX program you found and it worked perfectly. I can now run 3x1P, 5x1P, 1080p, 1024x768, and 640x480. You officially increased my compatibility, so thank you! Keep up the great work.

hey great video, i just wanted to show my setup for a softth config, im pretty sure only softth can do more than 6 monitors (except for linux???) And the only thing 6 monitors are good for are rts games such as dawn of war.. My video on youtube http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0ksaGBaFBYA

Nice video, would like some additional information if you have time
1. On PLP you mentioned 16:10 for center and 4:3 for side monitors but the text in the video says 16:9. Guess that doesn't matter much?
2. Im thinking of selling my 3 24" inch monitors for a future PLP setup and in the meantime get something like a ultra widescreen monitor like 21:9 but there only seems to exist 29" monitors for that with a resolution of 2560x1080. Would that be a problem or can I adapt for other sidemonitors? http://www.prisjakt.nu/kategori.php?l=3 ... s126250311

SoftTH is pretty awesome. You can do almost anything with it. I still don't think I'd want a horizontal bezel for rts games.

Well, I didn't feel like drawing a 16:10 monitor. Technically you can do plp with a 16:9 monitor as long as you find monitors that fit.

You can use what ever side monitors you want. If you want the 29" 21:9 monitor, 23" 1080p monitors would line up almost perfectly and it would be LLL. As far as I know, there are no 1080 wide 4:3 monitors.

No problem. I'v working on new content all the time.

Wait, lining up a 29" 21:9 with a 23" 1080p would be PLP not LLL right? because LLL with that would be damn wide

I think he meant LLL because you'd still have thinner monitors on the outside than the center and all would be 1080 pixels tall. And yes, damn wide would be fitting.
Keep up the great work.
