Multiple GPU

I have a pc with dual gpu. Is there any way to output from Resolume using both graphics cards? I read somewhere that it was possible although it would simply repeat the signal from my first video card on the second one. This is acceptable for me but I haven't figured out how to do it.

Thanks!

As long as your OS can see separate screens connected - Resolume can output to them. Resolume does processing on the GPU your primary display + the Resolume GUI is on. There will however be some performance hit transferring video data to the second gpu.

If this pc is a laptop with a good gpu along with an intel graphics card, make sure you use your good gpu as the primary display.

Have a look at this section of the manual: https://resolume.com/manual/en/r5/advancedoutput

Take a look at this post by Joris: viewtopic.php?f=12&t=11874&p=48673&hilit=+render#p48673

I personally do all my work from one GPU and if I ever need more outputs than what's available, I use Datapath X4 hardware or I split comps onto multiple computers and synchronize the playback using an OSC controller (not master/slave mode).
