I have 2 XT2145 using both outputs. 4 individual screens. Each screen will have sometimes have its own image, or an image splitting the screen. I'm a little confused about the "On-Demand" Widget. Right now, I have an event handler sending UDP to the On-Demand widget set to <any>. Within the On Demand widget, I have all the clips for one screen. Copied all that layout over to screen 2 and changed the content inside the On Demand. It is my understanding that the On-Demand widget will filter which piece of content to trigger by whatever is in the "key field". so a UDP command of "flowing" will trigger media 1 where a UDP command of "river" will trigger media 2 as long as those clips have those key words in them. Will I get into trouble if the key word shares words? For instance, redfire and redwater would get me into trouble? Or is it looking at the entire word block?

Second, When I need synchronized playback, is it better to just send UDP to both devices or should I set up one as a leader and the other as a follower? Which part of the layout chain needs to have the synchronize widget on it? the On Demand widget? The UDP widget? Am I overcomplicating this?

Hi there. I'm trying to extract cue data from chamsys and move it over to a new control system. Nobody at the venue can tell me how the lights are being controlled (multiple control systems at the moment). They have a hunch that chamsys is running video content to a pixel map, but I just want to confirm. I've been diving into the manual and at a first pass, I viewed each playback and saw that there was no media referenced in the media column of ANY cue. I am assuming that this means that there truly is NO MEDIA being played back by anything? I also looked in the media tab and I see nothing but stock content. I know they have a custom video file they've made, but I don't see it in the show file. I do see pixel maps patched, but once again, I can't find where they are actually active. I do see them at 100% in some cues, but with a media and file value of 0. Is there a way to look in the root folder and pull out any content? Is there any way to choose a channel and see all the cues/stacks that it is active in?
