Try re-exporting the video file from another software or converting it. Some software bakes in a timecode track, (which Isadora can't use but which still causes issues in Isadora for some reason).
Without seeing the actual video.... some troubleshooting thoughts:
Are you using the MBP in your sig for this show? If not, what system are you running?
When you say 'mess with Isadora' what do you mean? How does it mess with Isadora? What actually happens?
Does the video play fine in other software? iMovie, etc etc?
How was the video originally encoded? What format? What Codec? What frame size and rate?
What did you 'resample' it to? And how did you do that?
I am doing some video mapping for the local theater. The given video turns out to mess with Isadora. I resampled the video without success. I had a complete reinstall of Izzy + deleting all old prefs. What are my options? See enclosed video for details.

Unfortunately this type of multi card config isn't officially supported. Primarily because we can't possible test every configuration, so we don't have 'best practices' outlined.
With this type of config you will undoubtedly run into a bottle neck somewhere, although it may or may not impact your project. Generally 1 primary dedicated gpu will be assigned to Isadora by Windows, and this is where vide textures etc are loaded to for processing (fx, mixing, mapping etc) then the finished texture will be sent to the GPU physically connected to the output device (projector etc).
So, transfer speed to these output cards is often where performance hits are seen.
As far as the stage IDs/Numbers. Isadora uses the connected displays as Windows reports them, so if windows moves anything, Isadora will see them differently.
I know others have used edid hdmi emulators, to lock device to specific positions.
I think this post has a fair amount of info on this: https://community.troikatronix...
We have Art Net support via the Art Net actors, but do not have sACN support at this time.
If sACN is an absolute requirement, it could be handled via Pythoner, but would take some custom coding.
As far as VLANs go, there isn't an Isadora-specific requirement to separate Art-Net and sACN, or to put all DMX-over-IP traffic on a single VLAN. They can coexist on the same lighting/show-control VLAN, and for a relatively small network that's probably the simplest setup.

@DusX I'm going to leave the multi-card explanation to you
Here is the Isadora Duncan game using 3D particles - use the 's' and the '+', '-', keyboard characters to interact with it. Download the Isadora files here.
