RE: Re: [OT] Help - PC output to six separate plasma screens.



Syncing them may require a little more thought though.

What kind of data do you want on each display - is it just a separate
presentation for each or something more complicated?

If you need each presentation to change SIMULTANEOUSLY then you may need to
think about some kind of automation i.e. page up/down keys sent to each PC
that's running a presentation. I'm sure it's possible but not done exactly
that before.
