By using a MiniDisplayPort to VGA, HDMI, or DVI adapter, we can cover the MiniDisplay Port or Thunderbolt port to whichever connection we require. While the ports are identical and compatible for video output purposes, Thunderbolt includes additional functionality.
Instead, many computers include a MiniDisplayPort or Thunderbolt Port. The most ubiquitous types of video output connections today are VGA, HDMI, and DVI.Īs laptops continue to shrink in size, fewer machines are manufactured with physical VGA or DVI ports. When securely connected to your computer, Isadora will “see” this display automatically. Just as with a single video output, your computer must have a video output device of some kind to connect to a display. You may already be familiar with connecting a single video output to your computer, so in this section we will discuss how working with two or more video outputs simultaneously may require additional hardware considerations. However, users interested in using Isadora’s multiple display features, such as edge blending and projection mapping may wish to consider the visual consistency offered by using identical units. You could work with two different projectors plus a television set, for example. There is no requirement to use identical units or displays with Isadora, as the application automatically detects the resolution of each display.
The built-in monitor on a laptop computer “Beamers” are extremely diverse, and range from small, hand-held units to massive cinema-grade machines. Since Isadora uses the term “projector” quite specifically to refer to the Projector actor, it’s not uncommon for Isadora users to call these instruments “beamers” for the sake of clarity. In this tutorial, you will learn how to configure Isadora to facilitate video output for multiple displays. Isadora 3 supports up to 16 video output channels, called Stages. Using multiple instruments empowers you to create massive display walls, intricate overlapping designs, and three-dimensional interactive spaces filled with dynamic video or graphical effects. Working with multiple displays opens up powerful design options. Prior to this tutorial, you may wish to review our Quick Start Guide to Stage Setup in Isadora 3 to familiarize yourself with the basics of setting up Isadora 3 for video output.
