Hi,
is there any way to show dashboard as a video? We need to use this on a video wall and using video instead of www works much better in this case.

Hi Adrian,
You can use 3rd party tools like ffmpeg to stream the content of a screen as an IP video stream. (link).
If you have an SDI multiviewer, you could also use an HDMI to SDI converter to convert a PC video output into a video signal for your multiviewer. (link).
I think what Ive says is the kind of solution you would look for, something that can grab the screen from a client PC (where you would open up the dashboard), and stream that as video towards the video wall.
And I’m not sure and would have to verify, but it might be likely something that you can accomplish with VLC?
Came across this with a quick first google:
vlc.exe screen:// :screen-fps=30 :screen-caching=100 –sout ‘#transcode{vcodec=mp4v,vb=4096,acodec=mpga,ab=256,scale=1,width=1280,height=800}:standard{access=http, mux=ts, dst=192.168.0.1:8080}’
It’s an older how-to, but it seems to explain capturing a desktop and streaming it out as video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DUJXz6c_5no
Hi Adrian,
I’m not immediately answering the question, but I had another customer with a similar use case. The goal was to have a dashboard available on the videowall. The program used to arrange and set up the video wall does not have an easy way to adjust the screen upon the start of the application. In summary, that means we needed to make something available without any interaction to show the dashboard.
The DataMiner Cube client can automatically start and log in with the Windows User. You can also specify arguments, to automatically open a View. In the Visual Overview of the View, you can embed the Dashboard and show it in full screen.
Kind Regards,
Jarno
Hi
to my knowledge, this is not possible.
