Video Wall to each monitor

Postby Malolillo » 14 Apr 2010 12:05

Hi,
i'm trying to make a 3x1 Videowall.
I have 3 monitors in Ubuntu and everything works ok.
When i try to launch a video in 3 monitors:
cvlc --vout-filter=wall --wall-cols=3 --wall-rows=1 --wall-active 0,1,2 -f
It sends 3 videos to the same monitor,
How could i send every video to every monitor?

Maybe with mosaic?

Thanks

Short of writing a dedicated XRR filter, you will need to move the video windows (in windowed mode) before you enable fullscreen.

I have 2 Nvidia 8400 cards and I have 3 monitors working with Nvidia drivers.
The problem is how I send the video to each monitor.
With Xrandr ca I do It?

Yeah, if someone wrote a XRandR-based video filter, it would work. But that code is yet to be written.
