2 or more Ventuz Runtime instances on one PC

Post by chriss0212 » 02 Oct 2018, 12:32

In some cases it would be very usefull if we could run more ventuz instances on one pc.

For eg: i need to outputs and both outputs have a touch screen. It is a very simple scene and it budget for a second PC and a second Ventuz lic. is a KO for the project ;(

So it would be absolutly fantastic, if we could start Ventuz runtime twice but on different outputs!

A workaround in Ventuz5/6 is an autoit script. First you need to make a copy of the VentuzPresenter.exe and rename it to VentuzPresenter_1.exe. If you start the presenter twice, you get an error.

Code: Select all

Example()

Func Example()
    Run('"C:\Program Files\Ventuz Technology Group\Ventuz 6\VentuzPresenter_1.exe" "D:\Ventuz\Projekte\Ventuz6\Test\Test.vzp" -log:0 -default:/zwei', "C:\Program Files\Ventuz Technology Group\Ventuz 6", @SW_SHOWMAXIMIZED)
    WinWait("Test")
    Sleep(1000)
	Send("#+{Right}")
    Sleep(1000)
    Run('"C:\Program Files\Ventuz Technology Group\Ventuz 6\VentuzPresenter.exe" "D:\Ventuz\Projekte\Ventuz6\Test\Test.vzp" -log:0 -default:/eins', "C:\Program Files\Ventuz Technology Group\Ventuz 6", @SW_SHOWMAXIMIZED)

EndFunc   ;==>Example
This will open a presentation on screen 1 in director mode... will wait until its open... then move it to the second screen... and open the next presentation on screen 1 ;)

I think it only works in virtual fullscreen!
