lippavisual Posted November 8, 2018 Share Posted November 8, 2018 Awesome. Keep it up Jason. The easier to configure for the integrator/end user, the better! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

poisenoire Posted November 13, 2018 Share Posted November 13, 2018 While it doesn't *need* it, a bounding box representing the TV screen (1080p) would be helpful when sizing the tiles. I had to do a bit of playing around to knowing if I wanted 1x1,1x2, etc... and then when it went on the TV wasn't always what I imagined. A more advanced option would be the ability to go back into a tile after setup and modify the parameters. I didn't find a way to do that and had to start over each time I wanted to make a change. Easy on most, but on those like the maps there's a bit of info you have to put in each time. But - don't take these comments in any way against what you have to date. I love it, it's great and very usable. Still very pleased with this overall matrix solution and especially love the fact features are added all the time.

I like the idea for "preview" on different screen sizes. I'll see if that is feasible. Editing tiles after adding them is definitely already on the list Thanks!

flikfoto Posted November 17, 2018 Share Posted November 17, 2018 I can not seem to get my Splash Tiles to display on my system. I just get a black screen every time I try to get it to work the way that was explained in your video. Any suggestions? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

flikfoto Posted November 18, 2018 Share Posted November 18, 2018 I have 5 VRX020 running FW 1.9.7 and a VTX 100 with 4 sources running FW 1.6.4. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
videostorm Posted November 18, 2018 Author Share Posted November 18, 2018 SplashTiles is supported on our VRX040 or NetPlayTV (Fire TV, nVidia Shield, Sony, Toshiba) decoders. VRX020 doesn't support web sources. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
flikfoto Posted November 18, 2018 Share Posted November 18, 2018 Thanks for your response. So all I need to do is purchase new VRX040's for any TV that I want to have the spash tiles on? Can I have a combination of VRX040's and 20's in my system? I have another question also? Are the VRX020's suppose to do tiling and PIP? That doesn't seem to work on my system also. On the tiling what happens is I see the tiled screen for a second then the TV returns a resolution not matching error. On the PIP I just do not get any PIP overlay. I appreciate your assistance.

flikfoto Posted November 18, 2018 Share Posted November 18, 2018 Additionally if this helps the Text OSD also does not work. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Correct, VRX040 or our NetPlayTV decoders will support SplashTiles. You can mix and match different decoders in the same system. VRX020 do support tiling and PIP. You likely have a setup error in your system. Check to make sure the 2nd streams on your encoders are enabled and set to 640x480 (in VMM source setup). Text overlay also works on VRX020. How are you selecting these features (which control method)? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
