<p dir="auto">I am creating a simple slide show, one image in each scene.<br />
The images are shown using picture player linked to a projector, and this uses the video-gpu input and output respectively.<br />
I want to caption these images.<br />
I am using the text/ure actor to put the caption on the stage. But this has a video-cpu output, so I cannot connect it to the same projector as the picture player. I have to create a second projector for this which has a video-cpu input.<br />
Is this the right way to do this, or am I missing a way of outputting the two actors to the same projector?</p>
<p dir="auto">This will evolve into a more complex project with several stages, one of which will be a monitor for the presenter showing them their lines -  which the audience won't see - as well as the images, so I'd like to get my workflow correct at this point!</p>
<p dir="auto">Thanks</p>

Gpu drive, more possibilities.</p>
<div>You have to send the text to it through various possible actors: text, trigger text, edit text control etc.</div>]]></description><link>https://community.troikatronix.com/post/19741</link><guid isPermaLink="true">https://community.troikatronix.com/post/19741</guid><dc:creator><![CDATA[jhoepffner]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Sun, 17 Apr 2016 08:09:06 GMT</pubDate></item></channel></rss>
