Richard,

I really like the Submixes Option to bring in a mix only on Center Left or right of the Triple Head to Go.
But what I would really like to have is an option that I can use e.g. Mix 4 on the complete resolution of the THTG.
This would not make sense with DL1 or similar but I really often use Splitscreens say 3 Projectors which form one Picture like a tryptichon.

Or do I oversee something really simple?

hi friend,

yes, when you unlock your mix window and open mix type, then you see "mix x offset" and "mix y offset".

for triple screen without edge blending use this like:
-layer 1 on mix 1, mix 2, mix 3
-position mix 1 on left screen, mix 2 on middle screen, mix 3 on right screen
-mix 1 "mix x offset -2", mix 2 "mix x offset 0", mix 3 "mix x offset +2"

and then load a movie on layer 1

...hope to see you in frankfurt;-)

Dear,

good to hear from you and thank you for that good advise.
I thought it could be useful to have also access to the full resolution of the THTG on one Mix.
For example :
Mix one is 3072 x 768 Left
Mix two is 3072 x 768 Ctr
Mix three is 3072 x 768 Right
Mix four is 3072 x 768 Full
Mix five is Pixelmix 1
......
This was the idea of this feature request. of course with your variation I still have access to the different Outputs via Image X, Y and scale but I really love these straight mixes to the Outputs plus a canvas overall

And be sure to see me in Frankfurt, we have loads to talk and drink

this is really really pushing things on older machines.

From my Point of View I thought it would'nt make a difference how the mixes are layed out.
I thought just the Resolution of the Sources and Fx Adding makes something about the performance.

I don't want to play out a Video in native Resolution 3072 x 768, it's more to have the possibility to run three Videos on the different mixes and add a keyed Image as canvas over all the Videos.

Playing Out Videos as tryptichons I normally use resolutions like 1800 x 400.

The 3072 x ..... was just for explanation about the Mix differences
