This software enables simultaneous playback of Quicktime movies across several computers, allowing for synchronized viewing.
MultiScreener is an excellent set of freeware applications that help you synchronize the playback of Quicktime movies on multiple computers. Designed to cater to the requirements of multi-screen video walls, multichannel art installations, and the like, MultiScreener is a must-have for artists who want to create synchronized video installations without breaking the bank.
This software comes with two applications- the Server and the Client. The Server plays a movie and sends position information over the network, while the Client "listens" to the Server and adapts its playback speed to stay in sync. The software is very user-friendly, and all settings are automatically saved for unattended startup.
MultiScreener can output to the computer screen in fullscreen mode, or to external video devices like firewire DV. Since there is no native resolution or frame-rate, all Quicktime video formats are supported equally. Also, the software allows you to loop seamlessly without any jarring interruptions.
What's more, there is no limit to the number of clients you can connect to your network, making it a perfect solution for large-scale installations. With MultiScreener, you can achieve artistic synchronicity without investing in expensive DVD players or sync boxes. Overall, it's a reliable, artist-friendly, and low-budget alternative that you can count on.
