Add V-Nodes and set it up

Add V-Nodes

Now the video projection study is done, we know we have 9 video projectors so we need 9 outputs, plus one Speakers screen, plus Monitoring Output.
We have V-Nodes with 4 outputs graphic cards, so here is the V-Nodes Outputs distribution:

Configure the V-Node

For each V-Node:

• Assign its corresponding Render Surface

*For instance, the Render Surface for the VN01 is RS-VN01.

• Set the Desktop Resolution to 4*1280×800 = 5120×800
• If you physically have the V-Nodes and want to configure them, please check the Remote Settings section.
• If you have a soundcard, we will assume it’s installed on VN01 and VN02 will be the audio spare player.

Add Audio channels to V-Node

Once the V-Node is well set including settings its soundcard, we have to declare its channels in the Project.

• Go to Project Settings
• Audio
• Rename Channel 1 to ST-L and Channel 2 to ST-R
• Add an Audio Group called Stereo

*An Audio Group allows us to control Audio level of all channels going through this Audio group, another familiar name to this is a “bus”.

• Select the V-Node and go to the Audio tab
• Assign Output 1 to Stereo L and Output 2 to Stereo R

Now, each audio media that will plays on Channel 1 and 2 will be played by the V-Node.
