ok -thanks, merci! i guess this is done via [pdp_icedthe~].
maybe you can answer me further questions before i start installing +patching, i'm on a mac and have almost no experience with linux..
can pdp_icedthe~ be used for 8 streams (320x240, no sound) simultaneously? what computing power would be necessary, you guess? is icegast able to run 2 videos full-screen on 2 displays that are connected to PCI-graphic cards on a pentium ~1.5ghz? (vlc did on windows while gem failed).
( the set-up is: 8 TVs connected to 4 (old) PCs with 2 pci-graphic- cards each. wanted to do that with a patching-environment on every pc and synching over OSC. but pd+max+vvvv didn't work proper yet (except vvvv, but not in full-screen) )
danke again, rainer.
as Deleuze would have said, experiment. i have no idea if this could work as i never tested such a setup ( and nobody did ) but, it will surely work better with linux, as pdp is not available for windows and works slowly on OSX.
suerte, sevy
