Zach here (responding to the digest so apologies if I missed some of the newer emails).
My MultiScreener software hasn't been updated in awhile, but seems to work fine on the machines I've tested recently. I would recommend it for people who already have a bunch of computers. However it's much easier and more reliable to use a BrightSign HD222 or older HD220 player for each channel (About $300-$350 each). They play directly from SD cards using a simple text script for setup. No daily startup/shutdown rituals required and no risk of some stupid MacOS software update notice appearing in the middle of your show! Feel free to try MultiScreener. There is a guide on the site with full setup details. You can run multiple channels on one computer. It's clumsy but it has worked well in practice. I modern Mac Mini would probably keep 2x 1080p videos in sync, but test everything to find out. I listed lots of similar software on the Multiscreener page. Summary: If you have a budget I'd go for a fleet of BrightSigns. http://www.zachpoff.com/software/multiscreener/ (One note: There are some Applescripts in the MultiScreener download that were compiled in the Pre-Intel Mac days, so they need to be opened in Script Editor and re-saved.) http://www.zachpoff.com/software/brightsign-video-sync-scripts/ [1] Feel free to get in touch via email if you have specific questions. -Zach Links: ------ [1] http://www.zachpoff.com/software/brightsign-video-sync-scripts/
