Just a quick one - I got a contract to produce a multiscreen interactive in-house display system for a Gloria Jeans Coffee store here in Sydney.

Using Opus 6.0, I managed to produced a nice project thats being displayed over 3 large flat screen HD tv's that are spread out around the store, as well as a projection on to one of the main glass walls of the store.

The system uses these 4 outputs via a signal splitter and its all controlled via a single PC ( intel duo ) with 4 gig of DDR 3 and a half gig drive - as wel as having the video driven via a 1 gig card.

It's in a shopping center, and its only one store - and Im waiting for the Gloria Jeans head office to give it the nod or not.

But from a personal perspective, I really dont care. - I actually did it! ( I actually designed, produced and delivered a real-world project thats seen by many people every day! Even if the guys at head office give it the thumbs up and this really takes off..... it will never hold a candle to the very first time I ( as nervous as hell ) switched it on ..and saw a dream become a reality.

If this is the furthest I EVER get.... I am still as pleased as hell. :D

Id REALLY like to thanks all those that were very, VERY supportive with some great advice and technical help in making this all possible - ( especially regarding using multi-screens ). This site must be the holy grail of truly dedicated people. - not only dedicated to using Opus, but dedicated to helping those in need, I greatfully thank you all.

:D :D :D

Hi Rick,

Huge congrats on getting the project finished and in the public eye. It's sounds great and I'm sure the big wigs will sit-up and take notice.

I've got family out that way, so will next time I'm in the area (it's only about 10,500 miles) I'll stop for coffee and look.

Best of luck,

Mack

Good work Rick,
