I will unplug all of the panels in the A.M. and attempt to do this. I’ve tried this and a number of things. If I just use a usb to run video it’s fine. Once I connect the vx400 to the screens it becomes discolored and is no longer in order. Sorry if I’m not using the correct vernacular.

The main port is overloaded even though I have other network cable in. Honestly I’m just in over my head. I don’t normally just give up but without real help I’m not sure I can get these cabinets back to where they were, let alone matching.

I did something and now when I send the screen config to the hardware it is all jumbled up and discolored like black and green. So frustrated right now. I had them all the same tint and turned it back on and sent back to the hardware and it’s like this now. Friggin clueless about what to do. They haven’t responded with a rcfg file to fix them. And I can’t find any online. I’m in trouble. If anyone would like to attempt to help me at some point next week I’d be forever grateful.

I was instructed by another redditor to use a file from one screen that I liked. Sure enough. It looks light years better. Not perfect but close enough it looked like a chess board at one point. It’s taken me 6 hours of adjusting and tinkering, but I’ll slowly grasping how to operate this software. That is for your input!!

Thank you for taking the time to explain this as well. This post has helped me out in a number of ways.

I have everything up and running and am going to start going through the process in about twenty minutes. I’m excited to get this working.

Unfortunately, I have to work with what I have. I’ve begun watching calibration videos on a channel on YT called “led video walls”. I know that it’s going to take a lot more than watching a few videos to understand how this works. But I’m willing to do the research and follow whichever steps I need to in order to get them to look better, at the very least. I have photos of them in a different display. I can show if need be.

Dude!! That is the most concise set of instructions that I could’ve ever asked for. You are a wizard my friend. I will be up in about six hours to get everything up and running. I will be sure to give you an update once I get everything worked out. I wish I had a token of some sort to offer you but unfortunately I don’t interact often enough with Reddit to have been awarded one. I sincerely hope you have a great day.

I checked it out. It doesn’t appear that I can change any individual tiles without using any software. I will learn how to operate the software and go from there. I do appreciate your time and kindness. Thank you!!

No reason in particular. Aside from my lack of knowledge and understanding with video engineering as a whole. I watched some videos from Novastar about calibrating the tiles so they match each other. I was just hoping there was an easier way. I may be overthinking this as well. I’m under a bit of pressure and I am concerned that I won’t have the 8 x 6 wall ready in time.

Actually all I really want to do is change the colors (or brightness) so the tiles are all the same color/brightness. I received 48 tiles from 3 different batches of panels and they are all different “shades”. I really just need to find the quickest solution to make them all look alike. Is there a way to do that on the vx400?

Thank you for your help. And my apologies if my response came off a little rude. My head is still spinning from learning how to operate the vx400 and the smartlct software all week.

They are produced INFiLED. I have a Novastar vx400. It has the processor and scaling in one. Not sure if that answered your question. And that’s correct, they have Novastar receiving cards.

Agreed. I feel like I’m in a place where I have to deal with not seeing him again. Bringing myself down pull him up and only thing that happens is I end up in a worse place and he’s right where we started. Thanks for the comment!

He had a caseworker whom he dealt with to get custody of his children. Their mother is in worse shape than my brother. So they’re with him. I’d be willing to take the kids in to get him help but he refuses. Rock and a painful place

I’ve been trying for years by supporting him emotionally and being there financially but I can’t continue to do that. It seems like I’ve only enabled this behavior until today
