many movies one projector Can't Post

hi - I am turning a total of 12 movies on and off by toggling visibility and they are routed through a variety of filters ( to change the movies look I am then toggling off and on the bypass of each filter or video patch ) but all the movies are going out through only one projector when one movie's visibility is off the the "attractor" movie is played until a new movie is activated - I have two movies that sometimes seem to be in the projector even though their visibility is OFF for each of them so they flicker off and on with the main movie the other 10 I have had no problems with - Does any one know why this is? - would using a projector for each movie fix this?. Thanks!

I use a projector when using multiple video output sometimes.
Never encountered the problem you are having though sorry.

Well, I don't completely understand what's happening in your patch. But for sure, if you have multiple links into one projector from multiple video sources, and more than one of those sources is sending video, you will see blinking images as they all struggle to be shown. It is critical that, when you have multiple video outputs linked to one input, that only one is sending video at any moment. Otherwise you're bound to see flickering images.

Could this be the problem for you?

P.S. Don't really know what you mean by "attractor" movie.

If you have many video's playing from one projector can you not use the multimix actor? However the top input 1, always gets priority over the lower inputs, but it should solve the flickering problem.

Maybe post your patch and one of us can check it out for you?
