I use Reaper to run our shows; click/backingtrack/DMX (vst)/midi switching for amps.
I'd like to incorporate some video playback into the show as well.
The video playback will be on two screens on either side of the stage.
I don't want any video cabling between the laptop running the show and the screens.
I've been researching wireless HDMI transmitters/receivers and I've found a couple that seem to be feasible for ONE screen for sure; but I'm not finding any clear answer as if I can have one transmitter send the same signal to two receivers at the same time and still remain cable-less.
No audio needs to pass thru to the screens and the signal will probably never be more than 1080 at absolute max. Mostly going to be logos with movement behind/sprites/etc - nothing time sensitive necessarily so a little lag is easily tolerable.
The key is to remain wireless and display to both screens at the same time.
I'm assuming that the transmitter will just show up as a second monitor and I can have the video playback window only on those monitors (I don't want the crowd to see the main laptop display obviously).
Anyone doing something like this and if so; what suggestions or ideas am I not thinking of that might help get this implemented?
