New features and enhancements
  • Enhanced Network Video Wall feature

In the new version we present the Displays Configuration tool with a Video Wall section.

This tool can be found in File menu > Displays configuration 

Please note: In order to work with the new Displays configuration tool you must use OSBASE driver v.1.0.2970 and above
 
The tool was designed as a super-friendly and intuitive tool, allowing the users to create multiple video walls, by a simple drag and drop action.
Once the initial setup is done, Windows® will identify the new setting as one big extended display, allowing the user to run any type of content on the new video wall setup. You can also set the new extended display to duplicate your primary screen.
Your video wall will be up and running within minutes!
