Hi there,
just a quick one that I can´t seem to find in the KB: How do Coplayers work? I would like to expand the standard Video_Menu Compound in 2025.3.0 to have it play several video files in Sync so I can feed a large, multi-tile background screen in a UE set.
Piping the timecode out of the first player into a second one and so on works, but getting the players to load the correct file, start and stop is a bit cumbersome.
There is a tab labelled "Coplayers" at the bottom of the Compound, but how do you use it?
Hi Stefan,
The CoPlayer reference pins are obsolete; they were part of the now-deprecated depth video playback system, so you cannot use them for synchronized playback.
To synchronize video playback in Aximmetry, connect the Timecode Sync output pin of the master Video Player module to the Ref Timecode input pins of the other Video Player nodes. Then, make sure to enable Timecode Sync on each Video Player you want to synchronize:
If you want to change the videos, you can easily drag and drop multiple video files into the Video Menu panel on the Control Board.
Additionally, if you need to combine several videos and Unreal will display them as a single texture, you can merge them using Aximmetry’s Sticker module.
Let me know if you need further clarification or assistance.
Warmest regards,
