Video Wall Overview
Video Wall Overview
A video wall is multiple screens arranged together to create one large display. GoVista supports video wall configuration and content management.
What is a Video Wall?
A video wall uses multiple individual displays arranged in a grid to show:
- One large image or video stretched across all screens
- Different content zones on different screens
- A combination of both
Supported Configurations
Grid Layouts:
- 2x2 (4 screens)
- 3x3 (9 screens)
- 4x4 (16 screens)
- Custom grids (any MxN arrangement)
Orientation:
- All landscape
- All portrait
- Mixed (for artistic installations)
Hardware Requirements
Displays:
- Commercial-grade displays with thin bezels
- Matched models for consistent color and brightness
- VESA mount compatible
Controllers:
- NovaStar TU15 Pro — For LED walls
- NovaStar TB40 — For larger LED installations
- MCTRL controllers — For professional LED setups
- Android players — One per screen for matrix configurations
For the best visual result, use displays from the same manufacturer, model, and production batch. Even slight color differences between screens are noticeable on a video wall.
GoVista Video Wall Features
- Grid configuration — Define rows, columns, and screen positions
- Bezel compensation — Adjust for the physical gap between screens
- Content zones — Assign different content to different areas
- Sync methods — Synchronized playback across all screens
- Timeline-based layouts — Change wall configuration over time
Content Resolution
Video wall content should match the total resolution:
- 2x2 wall of 1080p screens = 3840x2160 total
- 3x3 wall of 1080p screens = 5760x3240 total
GoVista handles the splitting and distribution automatically.
LED Walls
For LED walls with NovaStar controllers:
- Content is sent to the controller as a single feed
- The controller distributes pixels to LED modules
- Supports extreme aspect ratios common in LED installations
Video walls require careful planning. Consider the total resolution, content creation workflow, mounting, cabling, and controller setup before purchasing hardware.
