Hardware limitations of your computer using the Modulo Kinetic 2D or 2D+3D version:
A regular Modulo Kinetic server has a specific Pro AMD graphics card allowing to force EDID, do a Eyefinity with multiple screen.
These settings are available in Control/Hardware/EDID and Eyefinity.
These settings will not be available on a non PRO AMD graphics card. However, this is not a problem to follow most of the tutorials as they can be done on a single screen.
You won’t have access to a Deltacast live capture cards, so all settings regarding Deltacast, add live inputs cards will not work on your notebook.
However, you can add severals NDI live input sources in your Modulo Kinetic Designer. This will allow you to use the Live Mixer application for example.
On a regular Modulo Kinetic media server, you can lock the OS.
This feature is not available on the Modulo Kinetic Designer 2D or 2D+3D versions.
Start of Modulo Kinetic Designer 2D or Modulo Kinetic Designer 2D+3D:
The best is to have a video projector or at least an external screen connected to your notebook.
Then, you can open the Modulo Kinetic Designer on your main notebook screen. You will be able to open one blinking output (right click on the output) on your video projector or your external screen.
Then, follow the Start Project tutorial available in English and French.
