We have a 51' x 8' wall at my church that we would like to use for projection. We want to be able to project onto this entire area. We currently use ProPresenter. I am aware of using PP with a Matrox Triple head to go. The problem with this setup is that with only three outputs and edge blending three projectors, I would only be able to attain an image approximately 39.6' x 8' using 16:9 projectors, if my calculations are correct. Using a fourth projector would allow me to cover what I need, but you can only use three with PP. What other software or hardware is there available to help me cover this area? Or can someone possibly point me to a different forum that will be better suited for this type of question? Thanks for your help.

Look into a media server, such as Arkaos (among others), or ProVideoPlayer.

Datapath x4 or fx4. Takes a single connection out of the computer and does 4 outs. They have several versions depending on what you need for connectors.
I have done power point upto 6 wide at 1920x1080 with a really high power graphics card.
Content creation and power point at this size has several pitfalls. You can spend lots of time and money yet still have problems. Have a clear idea of what you want to do before spending a bunch of money on gear.

If you can get the width with three projectors, you could black out the top or bottom of the image to get a wider apparent aspect ratio. You would lose some resolution, though.

Look into LED wall, seriously.

Yeah, I've been looking at that also. A lot of variables in the LED wall category. If you have any links to good panels and good pricing, hit me with a PM. I've got a green light to put this thing together. Just trying to decide which way to go. Thanks again
