Re: [osg-users] Multi GPU Rendering

2011-08-22 Thread Miguel Lokida
I have tested osgViewer on the pc with two GPU card, windows 7 and osg 2.8.3.
When I display the statistics, I can see the 2 GPUs. And, If I move the scene 
from one screen to the other, I can see the load  of the GPUs that change.

But, I have some problem with the mouse. Sometimes, using the mouse only move 
the scene on 1 screen and not on the other. And I can only move the scene using 
the mouse on screen 2 (whereas the main screen is screen 1).

I'm sure it can, but effectiveness will depend on what you mean by 
part. We e.g. use multiple gpu with video streams on multiple 
monitors. You can also google for equalizer opengl.

The OSG osgViewer library natively supports multi-threaded multiple
graphics context usage, and for you case you can assign each context
to a different GPU just be setting the GraphicsContext::Traits
appropriately.  This type of usage is typically used for multiple
screen outputs.

From what little you have mentioned it's impossible to say what
expectations/intentions you actually have. Do you wish multiple
outputs or a single output?

Robert.

Re: [osg-users] Multi GPU Rendering

Hello,

Thank you for your reply.

I have one computer and inside, there's 2 GPU card with. Each GPU cards has 2 
video outputs.

I would  like to use 4 screens (connected to the 2 GPU cards) and divide my 
camera viewport in 2. Like this, I could see my scene on 4 screens.

I think that the firt GPU card would render the half screen and display the 
result on two screen (dual screen) and the second GPU card would render the 
last half screen on the two others screens (dual screen).

May be my idea is wrong ?

I have look at the 
http://forum.openscenegraph.org/viewtopic.php?t=7323postdays=0postorder=aschighlight=gpu_affinitystart=15
 post but I don't know is the problem has been resolved.

Moreover concerning Equalizer, I have look at it and try it but unfortunately I 
have not really managed to do what I wanted and I find the documentation for 
examples very light and there is less activity than here.

The osgViewer library supports this natively so there won't be any
need to worry about Equalizer.   The osgViewer library by default will
open up windows across all your screens and run multi-threaded,  You
can also explictly set things up, see the osgcamera example.

BTW, what happens when you run osgviewer on your system?

Also what OS and hardware are you working with?

Robert.

Hi,

For now, I haven't yet tested the multiGPU on the computer.
It is a computer using windows 7 and 2 Nvidia GTX 590.

The aim would be to use 2 or 3 pc with 2 GPU card in each and display the 
result on a display wall.  I have seen the osgCluster example and it seems to 
be a good way.

The hard part would be to synchronize the animation of the scene on the PC. I 
have not ever do that.

M.
