A video wall consists of 3 primary disciplines: the first is content production (the slicing of video to distribute to multiple screens); the second is leveraging software tools to dist. that content to hardware; the last is the config. of hardware to render these slices to present a cohesive canvas known as a video wall. BS has looked at these 3 disciplines and has creat3ed created software and hw to simplify this otherwise complex task. This documentation describes the methods available to BS customers to create video walls using BS software and hw.
- Legacy method: VideoWall Link/Synchronization method to create a video wall presentation with Series 3, 4, and 5 players in BrightAuthor:connected. manualThis method is completely manual so it is completely unconstrained in terms of the number of screens and the screen rotation.
- Using BrightWall with multiple players with Series 3, 4, and 5 players. This is not limited to the number of players, but is limited in that it can only produce a videowall of rectilinear nature (all screens must be portrait, landscape, all in the same orientation).
- Spreading one video asset across multiple boxes - using bw only
- Playing multiple video assets (pre-sliced) on multiple boxes - using brightwall with the mutli-asset widget
- Use the BrightWall Configurator (a video wall software wizard which easily lets you execute what would be a manual process) with either one or multiple video assets.
- Using BrightWall with a multi-headed player (for users of the XC5). This method is currently limited to 4 screens, also of rectilinear nature (all screens must be portrait, landscape, all in the same orientation).
BrightSign allows users to create video walls in a number of different ways. There are three primary methods, which are described on the pages below:
You can use BrightWall, which works works or the VideoWall Link/Synchronization method to create a video wall presentation in BrightAuthor:connected.
These methods, as well as the BrightWall Configurator (a video wall software wizard which easily lets you execute what would be a manual process), which lets you view and adjust your presentation onscreen, are described on the pages below:

You cannot use BrightWall video creation methods if you are using standalone publishing, because you must be connected to a network (additional configuration is required after publishing the presentation). |
