The hardware setup is the following:
2 FireMV 2400 pci express cards. Each card has 4 outputs. (didn't choose the hardware setup, only have to work with it...)
Basically i need to have 2 setups:
Play 5 different videos on 5 different screens
Play 1 ultra-wide video over 5 screens (4 outputs on first card, 1
output on second)
Is there any chance this will work (performance-wise) ?
I havent really started working on the patch yet, that's why i thought i might consult someone with more insight/experience with gem.

What sort of hardware setup? If you have multiple graphics cards driving the displays then having one instance of Pd/GEM per card is the best way to work. Spreading one context over multiple cards will fall back to software rendering and be very slow.

Hi all,
i'm having a setup with 4 projectors connected to a win xp box and would need to play 4 different videos at the same time (one on each screen).
I've already searched the mailing list, and found some information about a cvs version of gem that supports multiple gemwins. The version of gem i'm using is 0.91-cvs (the one coming with the latest pd-extended), but it seems i can't create multiple windows.
When i try to create a second gemwin, i'm getting "error: GEM: gemwin: window already made".
Is there a way to accomplish this without opening several instances of pd ?
thanks for your help,
