Quicktime panoramic view over multiple monitors

hi,
my goal is to display a video comprised of 6 moving images using quicktime 7.5 over 6 monitors distributed across the windows desktop. the video is 3840x480 -- i.e., 6*640x480. ideally this would be fullscreen over all six monitors. i've tried the following:
- setting fullscreen mode causes qt to fill the screen of the principal display and all other qt's disappear.
- in fullscreen options, setting 'panoramic' just rearranges the video window, does not span all 6 monitors
- fit-to-screen fits the window to -one- screen only
- i can stretch the video, but the controls are still visible, which results in the image not being scaled to the monitor's window size, so the 6 images being displayed are off.
any help really appreciated!
cheers

Yes I found the same issue. I have a dual monitor setup, and I like to play video on the second monitor as I work on the iMac.
Never truly liked VLC, as until today, I never knew it would let me customise the fact it would always black out my iMac when working in full screen. Seemed a little pointless. Still, I will always prefer QuickTime over VLC simply because the playback bar in VLC will not tell me how much time is left in my video, when QuickTime will. This silly little thing is really a big thing for me, and the dealbreaker for wanting QuickTime over VLC.

Play dvd or quicktime video spread over multiple monitors

Okay, I have a Mac Pro with a 512mb ati radeon with 2x 20" monitors hooked up to it via DVI. What I want to do is watch a DVD or quicktime video spread over both monitors. Not just full screen on one of them, but spread all the way over both so that the center of the video appears in cross of the two monitors. anyone know of anyway or software to do this?

I am not sure about software options...it might work with a hardware device like this, depending on your graphics card capability:

Video Over Multiple Monitors

Is it possible to create a 3840x1080 presentation in Keynote and then have it play across two monitors without using external hardware like the Matrox TripleHead2Go. Right now every time I play my 3840x1080 presentation it puts the show preview slides on one screen and scales the presentation to play on a single screen. I tried hooking up a 3rd monitor and it still does the same thing. My machine has 4 DVI's outs.

Quicktime screen record on multiple monitor setup error

Hello, I am trying to record a webinar using Quicktime 10.2 on my three monitor setup (usb video cards). The program loads fine and I can drag the record area on the main monitor that I want to record and then I get an error saying "The operation cannot be completed". I'd appreciate any assitance, I've also had a similar problem trying to record with iShowU HD. I find it difficult that in 2014 I cannot not record on a 3 screen set up.

Problem in creating a view over multiple tables

How do I create a View on top of the bCrelow tables. I have metioned the key fields of each table. How do i join the tables with common fields? I also need to create a Generic Extractor over the View later.
Z3PVR ( Custom Z table ):
Key Fields--> MANDT: Client; BUKRS: Company Code; WERKS: Plant; EBELN: Purchasing Document Number; ELNR: Accounting Document Number.
BSEG ( Cluster Table ):
Key Fields--> MANDT: Client; BUKRS: Company Code; BELNR: Accounting Document Number; GJAHR: Fiscal Year; BUZEI: Number of Line Item Within Accounting Document
CKIS ( Transparent Table ):
MANDT: Client; LEDNR: Ledger for Controlling objects; BZOBJ: Reference Object; KALNR: Cost Estimate Number for Cost Est. w/o Qty Structure; KALKA: Costing Type; KADKY: Costing Date (Key); TVERS: Costing Version; BWVAR: Valuation Variant in Costing; KKZMA: Costs Entered Manually in Additive or Automatic Cost Est.; POSNR: Unit Costing Line Item Number
BKPF ( Transparent Table ):
MANDT:Client; BUKRS: Company Code; BELNR: Accounting Document Number;
GJAHR: Fiscal Year
RV61A ( Structure ):
No Key
T001 ( Transparent Table ):
MANDT:Client; BUKRS:Company Code

Hi Chintai,
To create a view you can use Tcode SE11.
In the first screen of view creation you must introduce the tables for the view and the conditions of join, remember to introduce always the field MANDT.
You are introducing too much tables in your view and if I am not wrong you can not introduce Structures in a view.
As a suggestion start introducing in View only the tables that contain all char you need and also the tables with a reduced number of keys (as T001).
You can then obtain other fields from other tables via CMOD.
To built up a Generic extractor on this view you can use Tcode RSO2.
You can find under www.service.sap.com/bi an How to doc on Generic DataSource creation.
Ciao.

Play dvd or quicktime over two monitors

im not sure this goes here, but.... i'm wondering if there is a way (through other software or not) to watch a dvd or a quicktime video over two monitors, basically, to stretch it across both monitors for viewing.
I have two 20" lcds at 1650x1080 each.
Thanks!

Problems with viewing screens in multiple monitor configurations

Sorry if this is already posted somewhere, but after searching for 45 minutes, I couldn't find an answer.
Since upgrading an iMac to 10.5.7 I've had problems viewing over remote desktop. The iMac has a second display (20 inch Cinema Display) and mirroring is off. Before the upgrade, selecting which monitor to view was a snap. After upgrading, if I select one monitor after about 3 seconds is switches to a 2 monitor view. It doesn't matter which monitor I choose. When it displays both monitors simultaneously, the extra monitor's screen will flash every 3-5 seconds (via ARD, not in reality) and the mouse connection will freeze for about a half second.
Obviously, this makes controlling the machine difficult.
I've trashed all screen sharing and ARD related preferences on the machine without solving the problem.
If I turn off remote administration in the system settings and activate screen sharing, everything works fine (but I lose the other important features of ARD). No other computers on the network have a similar problem - but this is the only machine with 2 monitors. If I turn on mirroring, I still have the problem of the mouse control freezing every few seconds. I assume the connection is being dropped and refreshed.
Any help would be appreciated.

Same thing here.
From the instructor workstation I can see any of the lab computers when viewing both of their monitors. When I try to look at just one monitor all I see is a black screen.
The video mode on the instructor workstation seems to be important. The instructor station has a second monitor that is a 1024x768 video projector. We like to have video mirroring on, of course. But in this mode, the student's screen always displays black.
If I switch mirroring off, I get the same thing IF I pull up the student's screen on the projector display. But I can see it if I pull it up on the local display. And it still shows when I move it over to the second display. However, if it's on the projector display and I try to select a different display it goes black.
But the whole thing is kinda flakey. Sometimes it works one way, sometimes it doesn't.
It works better if I set the resolution on the external display to 1600x1024. But that looks badly stretched on the screen.
All of this started happening with the latest ARD update.
I tried the same thing from a MacBook and it works great.
I suspect that it is a mismatch between ARD and the video card in the iMac. (Model Identifier: iMac7,1). The Video card is ATI, RadeonHD2600.

Multiple monitors on laptop: iTunes crashes upon display lock

I have a laptop running XP Pro with an external monitor attached as an extended desktop. When I use iTunes (6.0.5.20) and lock my screen for any reason (close lid, screen saver activates, etc.), iTunes freezes and throws up an "Unsupported Display" window - or at least tries to: it appears in the taskbar but can't be viewed, opened, or closed. Only upon killing it (along with iTunes) can I continue to use my computer.
Anyone have a fix? I'm not the first to run into this; see for example:
http://forums.ilounge.com/showthread.php?postid=743115
Thanks.

I have a desktop with multiple monitors, and I have had the same sorts of problems. For me, iTunes 6 would display a dialog box that says "Unsupported Display" when I unlock the screens, though I was able to see it and dismiss it and life was good. Now, with iTunes 7, I can see that it tried to display an "Unsupported Display" dialog, but it crashed as well...

Can you have multiple users working off the same Mac pro at the same time with multiple monitors but doing different things?

I'm buying desktops for a start up company and was wondering if I could purchase a single Mac Pro and run multiple monitors to allow multiple users to work on the computer at the same time. These users would be doing different tasks but I would hope to accomplish that on a single desktop. I know that screen sharing is possible but with only one user controlling both of the screens. Thanks in advance, sorry for my apple ignorance!

A lot of companies are buying or leasing laptops to be used at the office by day, and carried home at night.
Some companies are doing "Bring your own device". Bring a device to receive email -- computer/smartphone/tablet you already have, or have an allowance to buy one for your use.
If Capital is short (and when is it not) leasing computers, to be turned in a few years, can be a huge savings because the cost is expensed as incurred. The alternative is laying out cash today, but not being able to expense the cost this year. Instead, the computer expense must be recovered over their useful life (often five years) through depreciation.

VMware Fusion question - Multiple Monitors

I apologize if this is in the wrong area, but I am desperate for some help. I have also posted this same question in the VMware communities but I have not had any luck with anyone responding yet.
It seems that I am having an issue with my virtual machine (windows XP) viewing in full screen or unity across my multiple monitor setup on my Mac Pro. Every time I go to view in full screen or unity I get a VMware popup warning/error that reads:
The virtual machine "Windows XP Professional" is configured for a smaller display size than the one your Mac is currently using. VMware Fusion needs to shut down your virtual machine to enable support for your Mac's display size in Full Screen. Do you want to shut down this virtual machine now?
I have two options, one to shut down, or one to go into full screen. If I go into full screen, full screen works with the correct resolution and everything looks great except its only in the one monitor (not the multiple monitor). If I shut down and restart the virtual machine and try to go to full screen I get the same error.
The VMware tools have been installed and I did go to the view, use all displays in full screen opiton.
My current setup is a mac pro with 3 monitors using 2 NVIDIA GeForce 8800 GT Video Cards.
Any help would be greatly appreciated!
Thanks

I found a link to a VMWare Knowledge Base entry about specifying video ram in Fusion 1. Maybe it is still true.

Feature Request - Better Multiple Monitor Support

Lightroom's support for a second display has definitely helped my workflow. I hope the team will consider adding more flexible multiple monitor support in version 4. Here's why.
I've recently experimented with running one of my three screens in portrait mode. When this screen hosts Lightroom's secondary display window in Loupe view, my verticals finally get equal real estate for editing. While I've not done hard statistics on my library, I know more than 50% of my imagery is in portrait orientation.
I'd like to see LR V4 support three or more screens so I could set up as follow:
Screen 1 - main lightroom interface, would not need to be calibrated, for controls and navigation
Screen 2 - Portrait orientation, loupe view - this would be a calibrated display, all develop changes to verticals would be judged on this screen
Screen 3 - Landscape orientation, loupe view - another calibrated display, all develop changes to horizontals would be judged on this screen
If Adobe could make the app intelligent enough to route the image to the correct screen based on orientation (recognizing and respecting cropping that could change orientation) my edit sessions would certainly speed up and I could maximize the productivity of multiple screens.
I'd be happy with this, but I'm also stymied by the need to switch back to Library mode to tag images when my primary workflow has me in develop. Ultimately everything depends on the quality of the image. Before I invest in image-specific meta data, I have to process or at least "test-process" an image. IMO the Quick Develop panel is useless, once you become accustomed to the granular control of the develop sliders, it just doesn't cut it.
In the three monitor setup I described above I'd love to be able to configure screen 1, with a combination of panels from Library and Develop, so I could stay "develop centric" with immediate access to keywording and meta. The two additional screens would intelligently handle image display.
I think this might speed my workflow by 33% and having just returned from a Tour de France project that generated 23,000 images I need all the productivity help I can get.

Thanks for all those votes Rob. Now we just need to get the other 999,999 on board.
Actually, this topic has come up a lot on this forum. At this point, I think we just need to get Adobe on board.
VeloDramatic wrote:
There may be another thread for this one additional thought. If Adobe does improve multiple monitor support, we should be able to optimize our previews for those screens. Even after prerendering 1:1 previews there are issues with DEVELOP doing its own thing (I believe) each time a new image is loaded. I make extensive use of the PREVIOUS button moving through my shoots and there's always a lag of one or two seconds while the develop preview loads before the button is active. In a desktop environment where multiple screens allow landscape and portrait images to be displayed full screen I'd argue that 100% of the host screen resolution would be the ideal preview. Hope that made sense.
Yes, faster switching would be nice. I'm not sure what that would take. As it stands, there's like "9" previews generated when you do 1:1s - 100% down to tiny thumbnails. Still, one at exact monitor size that does not need to be resized at all does seem like it would be the fastest - I'm a bit on a limb though at this point.

Windows 7 and Multiple Monitor Issues

Alright, I have spent the past 3 days searching these forums as well as on Microsoft's support pages and all of Google to find the answer to my issue and it seems as though I'm the only one who is running into this problem.
I have a 15 inch Macbook Pro with the GeForce 9600M GT Nvidia Graphics card with the latest version of Mac OSX and Bootcamp installed on it. I have Windows 7 installed in bootcamp. I just purchased a Mini DisplayPort to VGA cord with a VGA cord so as to connect my computer to my Sony Bravia HDTV to use as a second monitor. I plug in the cords, plug them into my TV, and put it into the proper input and it works like a charm. Then I go and boot up in bootcamp under Windows 7, plug in the cord, and my screen gets to the "starting windows" logo and then it goes black. I push ever button, I try control alt delete, nothing. I have to hold down the power button to turn off the computer and then turn it back on.
I turn it on, boot up into Windows 7, let it load, then plug in the cord, and the computer display instantly goes black, again, and yet nothing displays on the TV. Again, I try everything to no avail, so I power it off and back on. I go through this at least 10 times to no avail. I finally give up and try again the next day.
Next day, I plug it in, and the monitor stays up, but yet nothing is displayed on the TV. I go to my resolution settings in Windows, and go to the multiple monitors tab, and select every possible option (extend, duplicate, etc) and nothing will display on my TV. I try to change the settings to which it responds with "unable to save display settings" and nothing changes. I attempt to enter the nvidia program and make changes that way. The TV is detected, but when I select it and attempt to apply anything, no changes take effect and I am left with only the laptop display. Keep in mind I uninstalled and reinstalled all of the video drivers and such.
Finally I get fed up so I purchase a Mini DisplayPort to DVI adapted and a DVI to HDMI adapter. I try again. Again in OSX it launches immediately, no problems. I go back into Windows, and immediately I'm dealing with the instant black screen.
I'm going crazy over here trying to figure this out. I know it's possible to do this because I've seen people on youtube doing this and again it works on OSX so why the heck won't it work? If anyone has any idea what's going on here please help me out. Thanks.

JonMarx... I'm having the exact same problem. I'm in the exact same situation as you are. I'm going mad, and it's only by divine providence that I've finally located the only other person who knows what I've been going through. I've spent at least 20 hours trying to get this started back up, to no avail.
I had the secondary display working peachy for a while, long enough to configure everything to be exactly how I wanted it. I unplugged the monitor from the computer just to see what would happen, and that's when the problems started. I managed to get it to work one last time for a brief period a few hours later, but the way it just clicked on made it feel too good to be true.
I've had a wierd problem with a phantom display as well. The display will frequently show up as being available in both the nVIDIA panel and the windows settings, but if I apply the settings, they won't go through. I got a few screenshots of it the last time it happened.
I was just about to reinstall windows completely, but it seems that I'll just run into the same problem again if I do... Here's to hoping a solution is found.

How to run multiple CodedUI Ordered Tests over multiple Test Agents for parallel execution using Test Controller

we are using VS 2013, I need to run multiple Coded UI Ordered Tests in parallel on different agents.
My requirement :
Example: I have 40 Coded UI Test scripts in single solution/project. i want to run in different OS environments(example 5 OS ). I have created 5 Ordered tests with the same 40 test cases.
I have one Controller machine and 5 test agent machines. Now I want my tests to be distributed in a way that every agent gets 1 Ordered test to execute.
Machine_C = Controller (Controls Machine_1,2,3,4,5)
Machine_1 = Test Agent 1 (Should execute Ordered Test 1 (ex: OS - WIN 7) )
Machine_2 = Test Agent 2 (Should execute Ordered Test 2 (ex:
OS - WIN 8) )
Machine_3 = Test Agent 3 (Should execute Ordered Test 3
(ex: OS - WIN 2008 server) )
Machine_4 = Test Agent 4 (Should execute Ordered Test 4 (ex:
OS - WIN 2012 server) )
Machine_5 = Test Agent 5 (Should execute Ordered Test 5 (ex:
OS - WIN 2003 server) )
I have changed the “MinimumTestsPerAgent” app setting value
as '1' in controller’s configuration file (QTController.exe.config).
When I run the Ordered tests from the test explorer all Test agent running with each Ordered test and showing the status as running. but with in the 5 Test Agents only 2 Agents executing the test cases remaining all 3 agents not executing the test cases but
status showing as 'running' still for long time (exp: More then 3 hr) after that all so its not responding.
I need to know how I can configure my controller or how I can tell it to execute these tests in parallel on different test agents. This will help me reducing the script execution time.
I am not sure what steps I am missing.
It will be of great help if someone can guide me how this can be achieved.
-- > One more thing Can I Run one Coded UI Ordered Test on One Specific Test Agent?
ex: Need to run ordered Test 1 in Win 7 OS (Test Agent 1) only.
Thanks in Advance.

Hi Divakar,
Thank you for posting in MSDN forum.
As far as I know, we cannot specify coded UI ordered test run on specific test agent. And it is mainly that test controller determine which coded UI ordered test assign to which test agent.
Generally, I know that if we want to run multiple CodedUI Ordered Tests over multiple Test Agents for parallel execution using Test Controller.
We will need to change the MinimumTestsPerAgent property to 1 in the test controller configuration file (QTControllerConfig.exe.config) as you said.
And then we will need to change the bucketSize number of tests/number of machines in the test settings.
For more information about how to set this bucketSize value, please refer the following blog.
http://blogs.msdn.com/b/aseemb/archive/2010/08/11/how-to-run-automated-tests-on-different-machines-in-parallel.aspx
You can refer this Jack's suggestion to run your coded UI ordered test in lab Environment or load test.

Video & multiple monitors

I have a 2nd monitor next to my iMac. I always keep my iTunes there. Until I upgraded to Snow Leopard, whenever I played a video podcast, it would open on that monitor.
Now when I play my video podcast, the video window opens on my main screen. If I drag it over and then press the green button, it returns to the first menu. I need to push the green button to get it small, then move it to my second monitor, then press the green button to get it big again on that monitor.
This did not happen with Leopard.
