multi-channel show

I have watched the tutorial "Ventuz Director Tutorial 08 - Multichannel Shows" on the Ventuz web site and am still unable to get two channels working properly.

I am trying to run a Director show off a laptop that will control a media server computer. I have set up two channels called "Slot A" and "Slot B" and have made Property Windows and Playlists for each, but I am unable to use a template for my second channel.

I am attaching screen shots of my Timeline and Topology.

I realize this is a basic question, but I must start somewhere. I would greatly appreciate any suggestions.

Hi,

the thing is, the Director needs to have a point where to load that template to. One channel is easy, Ventuz just loads it in the default port of the engine (like loading one scene in Designer).
To use multiple channels, your project needs a layout scene with multiple scene ports:

Note: In V4 use scene ports. If you upgrade to V5, you should use Scene Layers.
