Rooms/Zones set up to control multiple TVs?

Hi all,

I have a project that has multiple TVs in one room, that the customer just wants to control without changing zones. There are 3 Sony TVs, and he just basically wants to go to 'Watch' TV1 or TV2 or TV3 and then control each one. How can we get multiple Video End Points in one room, is basically what I need.

Any drivers out there that anyone knows of that can do this?

I think BlackWire had a solution along those lines...but I don’t remember the details. I setup something similar but it was done using 3 rooms and a lot of programming so you didn’t have to switch rooms. It was very cool though and worked great.

I’ve got something like this.  3 rooms setup, 3 TVs and lots of programming.  The Neeo remote works quite nicely with this as one can programmatically change rooms when pressing a button without the user realizing this is happening.  However, it is currently a little slow.

I have setup systems like this. Its just a matter of how the customer wants to use the system on how they want to interface. Basically setup custom buttons to select sources on tvs and use fake sources for control. this is best with IR controlled but could be done with ip with more clever programming.

What is connected to the 3 TV's? I have done a virtual switch in the main room to make the other 2 rooms watch sources available and use the room control driver to add the secondary rooms to the session when room 2 and 3' sources are selected. Volume control of the secondary TV's is not very fun with a handheld but with the app or touch panel is decent since sessions allow it to an extent
