I am creating a video presentation that uses 3 complementary video clips synchronized to one common soundtrack. Each video is to be displayed on a separate screen. I am encoding as MPEG4 files but have three separate files.
I can get VLC to sync 2 of these videos, using the "open (advanced)" function and clicking "Show more options" which reveals the added field "Play another media synchronously". When I select the second media file, the interface again allows me to "show more options" and "play another...". I was overjoyed when I stumbled unto this, as I thought I could get the 3 clips to play; but when I tried it, only the first 2 clips will play in 2 instances of VLC (perfectly synchronized, mind you).
It won't automatically open and sync a third instance. I'm not a programmer: how can this be achieved? This presentation is next week, so I'd appreciate any input shortly
