How to do keystone and softedge with 2 outputs and one PC

Postby svarga » Wed Dec 08, 2021 5:40 pm

Hello,
i have Pandoras Box Server 8 with 2 outputs installed on my PC.
I want to set up 2 projectors using keystone and softedge.
How can I see the user interface of PB8 at the same time as 2 projector outputs in order to do the necessary adjustments?
I tried to connect a third display to my setup just to be able to do the adjustmens, but whenever I enter "Full Screen Mode", I loose the user interface which I need to do the adjustments. What to do?

Best regards,

Stjepko

If you use "CTRL+Shift+F" it will open "Full Screen Preview"
There is also a button for this in the bottom right of the preview.

This will have a toolbar in the full-screen mode that will allow you to select "Edit Mesh" mode.

You'll have to select which output to preview to make sure it's full screen before you start warping!!


Let us know if you need more help working with this mode.

Hey svarga,

You can also define your outputs in the render engine and setup which ones get used for output with the Fullscreen is single tick boxes:

Hello Justin an Roy,
thank you for your help!
I tried both methods previously. but they do not enable me to do what I need,
I want to see both outputs, and also be able to use scrollers for keystone and softedge (as it was described in video lesson - https://youtu.be/lP1iE0jRrAA?t=2059). In this lesson the presenter used the separate machines for PB and Client. But how to do it using just one PB8 machine?

Best regards,

Stjepko

Hi,

you will need to attach a 3rd Monitor, make Output 1 and 2 a NVIDIA Mosaik, and Output 3 you GUI.
