, and the Proclaim developers! Check out how they helped me out! Wow - they are awesome! I mentioned to Jordan and the other Proclaim developers that displaying a different video on our LED wall from what is on the main LCD projector screens had been a challenge for us with Proclaim. Here's what we have...We use the main output from Proclaim that is duplicated to two LCD projectors that are 4:3. These projectors are positioned on the sides of our stage. Then, we also have an LED wall in the center of our stage that is 16:9. We use a statice image as a background for our songs, bible, and content slides that are displayed on our two side LCD projectors, but we also wanted a related video to be playing on our back LED wall. This video changes with each song, bible, and content slide that is on the LCD projectors. Our solution was that we purchased another computer and had been running a separate instance of Proclaim on that other computer to display the videos on the LED wall. So, each Sunday, we had two instances of Proclaim running simultaneously to display to our two LCD projectors and one LED wall... It was a lot of extra work and money. Well, I wished I would have posted here and asked Jordan about it first! Jordan said it was possible to do in just one slide deck. There's no need to have two separate instances of Proclaim... then... Jordan made me a custom video walking me through step-by-step how to build this out in one of my existing slide decks in Proclaim. The video tutorial was super helpful and I am blown away at the amazing support! Wow - THANK YOU, Jordan and team!

    Thank you for sharing!!! We currently use 2 computers for a somewhat similar scenario, and both will have to be updated/replaced (older hardware) for Windows 11 by next October, so I was considering whether we could combine and use 2 graphics cards in the same computer and do away with the second computer. Now I just need to know about whether Proclaim will support 2 GPUS or not.

    , we have two graphics cards in our main Windows PC...works fine with Proclaim. However, it never hurts to check with Proclaim support for your specific use case before making a purchase. You can also run multiple SDI cards. Blackmagic makes some. I don't care for their name.

    Thank you for that. I purchased upgrade parts and we will see how it works!
