Hi Rick, Sorry no video, but have a couple of stills that someone took. Will see if I can work out how to post images here. Also have the Video schematic which may be useful to other members, showing main and backup mac pros with modul8, the 6 presentation macs and HD cameras, along with main and b/...

File is spread across three screen, with pillars in between them, so set-up the same way in the advanc...

Have asked to have the clip re-rendered using Photo-jpg codec and 75% compression, and am just installing an 80GB Int...

Have seen in the tech spec that Modul8 renders video at the native file size, and renders to the output resolution, but I wonder is there a maximum file size that can be handled? I've a client that wants to project a 3 minute clip of 6613 x 1080 pixels across 3 x 1920 x 1080 windows, the extra pixel...
