Video output to 2 screens, with second screen showing timecode

Postby nicholas_he » 22 Nov 2019 11:02

I am setting up a video that will be used for a live performance. The idea is that the video will be shown through a projector, but there are performers that need to also see the same video (with their back towards the audience), and have the timecode overlaid on the video to help their performance.

Is that possible at all? I've read about having multiple instances of the same video, but not having a timecode on a second video screen.

Thank you for reading :)

Hi, you probably need the 4.0 release (which is not out yet) for those features. When is your live performance scheduled ?

HI unidan, thanks for the reply, that sounds very exciting!

The performance is January next year.
