About a month ago i used video-sl for the first and it worked great. I had it running to 1 screen. then last night i used it for the second time and had it going on to 2 screens using a splitter/amp. the 2 screens are different sizes, 42 & 50. the picture was really bad very blotchy. any idea what could cause this?

Hi djlayz666,

This could be for a number of reasons.

Firstly, you are restricted by your Video card which will scale the output image according to its display properties.
Secondly, if you are using a 'splitter/amp' as you are referring to this will also scale the image according to its display properties. What model/make is the 'splitter/amp' that you are using ?
Thirdly, the performance settings within the Video-SL software plugin will also have an effect on your Mix Output.

Could you give me a little more detail on your computer, processor, ram, video card and internal/external hard drives you are using.

Make sure your video card drivers are up to date.

Let me know these details and we'll take it from there.

Hi djlayz666,

Thanks for the extra info could you also tell me how you are splitting the output to your external monitors. What make and model of splitter you are using ?
