Virtual Screen - Adding more than 8 videos - NOT POSSIBLE???

 

Hi,
I would like to add more than 8 videos into the overlays/virtual screen compound. How can I achieve this?
I can change the order of the videos but not the amount. I hope this is possible becaue I have a bunch of videos to show during an event.
I wasn't able to find anything on this matter in the forum or manual instructions. Any help is appreciated!

Best
Marc

Of course it’s possible!  Just add more video players and connect the pins to the pin collector for more video slots.

Sometimes..... I don't know what I do. I thought I've tried that already....it seems like I didn't, because now it's working.
Anyway, thanks ALOT for helping me out with my beginner questions here.

Have a great day!

Marc

Hi Marc,

It probably didn't work the first time because you left the "Show Remaining Time" pin between the video file pins. There is a step-by-step guide under this post: https://my.aximmetry.com/post/387-add-more-videos-on-the-overlay-component

Additionally, we have documentation on this Video Button type here: https://aximmetry.com/learn/virtual-production-workflow/preparation-of-the-production-environment-phase-i/scripting-in-aximmetry/flow-editor/special-pin-names/#add-a-video-image-switch-to-the-control-board

Warmest regards,

Thank you Eifert@Aximmetry,

those links are very helpful! You know typically I don't belong to the lazy guys, who don't want to search or read the manual, but it's not easy to find the right things sometimes in the forum/manual (I know the manual gets updated.).

Kind regards
Marc

Hi Marc,

You are right; it can be hard to find things.
Note that the search features in both our Learn documents and on the forum are very basic. Improving them is on our list of things to do.

In the meantime, you can use Google search if you can't find something.
For the forum, you can use this:  https://www.google.com/advanced_search?q=+site:https://my.aximmetry.com
For the Learn section, you can use this: https://www.google.com/advanced_search?q=+site:https://aximmetry.com/learn

Warmest regards,
