Broadcast from Resolume to iPad via wifi

Post by pablogiganti »

Hi,
I´m new to the world of Resolume and I was wondering if it´s possible to broadcast live from Resolume to one or more iPads over wifi. I guess that what I need is to set up Resolume to act as a server/host and some sort of player/client installed in the iPad or iPads.
Basically, the idea is to use an iPad (ideally several iPads) as display or multi-displays.
I´ve seen several posts about doing the opposite i.e. live broadcast from iPad/iPhone´s camera to Resolume but it´s not what I want.
Is it possible? Has anyone tried this? Is there any Resolume plugin or similar to achieve this?
Thank you in advance.
Pablo

You can try using AirDisplay. AirDisplay devices will show in the Advanced Output as separate screens.

Framerates and delays are not what you might expect though...

splashtop xdisplay does the same thing to any ipads connected on the same network....

they're all fairly slow, but at low resolutions with a fast network you may achieve decent results

Hi,
Thank you for all your help. I tried AirDisplay yesterday and it´s kind of ok. It does drop some frames but nothing mayor to be honest, especially if you use low resolutions (640x480) which is ok for the project I´m working on.
One thing I noticed is that you can hock up only one device per computer so, it´s not good if you want to control more than one iPad at a time.
I´ll try iDisplay http://www.getidisplay.com and Splashtop xdisplay http://www.splashtop.com as suggested and come back to you with some feedback.
Thanks,
Pablo
