Video wall with physical monitors
Hey I’m building a video wall and had a question. I got it to work when running spacedesk on each tv via the Amazon App Store. However, when I try to use the TVs directly attached to my computer I’m able to assign each source to the video wall but doesn’t show. Am I doing something wrong or do I have to activate them independently? They are greyed out on spacedesk unlike the green color for my “remote” tvs. I’d just run it remotely but it can be laggy when doing tasks like gaming. My bad if this is a basic question but I really only space desk on my phone as a second screen for my computer
I have the tvs hooked up through hdmi. Have it working via the tvOS apps; is that spacedesk viewer? I have it working when I use the apps but then I have double the inputs. Is it possible to just use the physical connected monitors instead of having to run the app on each tv?
Hi @maharrashi,
How exactly are you connecting your TVs to your PC? If it’s through HDMI, you cannot establish a spacedesk connection via HDMI. If they’re greyed out, that means it’s not connected to the Primary PC via spacedesk.
Spacedesk is strictly a network-based display extension software, not a local display manager. Direct HDMI/DisplayPort connections to your PC bypass Spacedesk entirely, which is why those displays appear greyed out. To tile directly connected monitors for lag-free gaming, use your GPU’s native software (NVIDIA Surround or AMD Eyefinity) instead.
