9X CHOREOGRAPHER: VIDEO WALL SOFTWARE
9X Media offers two unique and powerful multiple monitor software applications. The 9X MultiScreen Manager, designed for use with desktop Multi-Screen Displays and PC’s, and the 9X
CHOREOGRAPHER software, designed to control X-Wall Video Wall Displays.
The 9X Media's Multi-Screen Manager Software utility designed for desktop
multi-screen PC use is located here. This application makes multiple monitor
computing even easier. It intuitively increases productivity and seamlessly
enables the greater potential of multiple monitor computing.
9X Media’s VIDEO WALL CONTROL SOFTWARE, 9X CHOREOGRAPHER is located here.
CHOREOGRAPHER Video Wall sofware is a user-friendly software application that
enables easy configuration, 'setup and save' of multiple computing scenarios running on 9X
Media video data wall controllers.
9X Media offers 3 comprehensive lines of video wall controllers ranging from our output only
DS series designed for digital signage and corporate presentations to the powerful HD series
product capable of running high end network operation centers and command and control
centers.
The 9X Media family of video wall controllers operate on the Windows XP Pro operating
system. Our interface looks like any other windows XP program and requires absolutely no
programming to operate and can be operated by anyone capable of running a typical windows
program.

Our family of input cards receive: HD component, VGA, DVI, Composite, S-Video, and HDMI
signals and route them to a bus that transports the video source directly to the output cards
without the video signals ever going down into the system bus. This enables our controllers to
handle literally hundreds of video signals without overloading the system CPU.
Once the video signals arrive at the output cards, the Choreographer software provides you with
an interface that allows you to open an inlay window, select a source from the menu, enter the
source information type (component, composite, etc) via drop down menus, size and position the
inlay window and place the source onto the wall.
Also, because our controllers are Windows based you can also load any windows application
onto the 9X Media controller open any windows program using our software and sizing it as
needed onto the wall.
The user can interactively move and size the application windows. The user interface can be
displayed on a network connected PC as well as on the display wall itself or on an extra control
screen connected to the 9X Video Wall controller. The number of networked operators is not
restricted by Video Wall Manager and individual seats may be purchased per user.

The 9X Media Video & Data Wall Manager displays the entire wall layout in its local
application window. The position and size of each window on the video wall is displayed in the
application window.

9X Media Video Manager CHOREOGRAPHER provides for saving specific wall layouts
enabling the ability to be re-called when required. There is an area of the application around the
desktop where windows can be dragged allowing them to be manipulated without being
displayed on the video wall enabling a seamlessly professional presentation of multiple inputs,
information and video.
4 rules to remember
Any video or XP program window can be positioned onto any screen of the video wall
Up to 16 inlay windows can be placed onto any one screen of the wall
Any inlay window can be scaled to span any portion of the overall wall
And any combination of the 3 rules apply
Image of multiple inlays on a video wall
Save up to 256 of your most used configuration for 1 touch recall
So you have your inlay windows sized and positioned, you have your computer feeds where you
want them, you have several windows programs running and you want to create another
configuration of inlay windows, now what?
Our Choreographer software enables you to save up to 256 pre-sets. Nearly all our customers use
this feature. It is as simple as going clicking on File, Save as and then naming the file which goes
to your windows desktop. You can name it whatever you want and any time you click on that
Icon Choreographer repopulates the screen system with every video feed and windows program
you had running when you saved it.
Let’s say you have 100 video cameras feeding into the HD6400 and you want to view those
inputs in groups of 25. All you need to do is set up 4 inlay windows each showing 25 feeds at a
time. Then anytime you click on one of the inlays Choreographer will automatically bring up 25
feeds in about 1.5 seconds.

Choreographer Remote Video Wall
Software
As an optional feature, the Choreographer
Remote can be loaded onto as many
windows machines as needed. Up to 9 at a
time can access the Choreographer server
package from any network or internet
connection from anywhere in the world
and perform all of the tasks in terms of
putting content up to the video wall as
you can do from the mouse and keyboard
of the controller. The remote access user
even sees a limited bandwidth image of
the entire wall to give them confirmation
of what is on the wall and the changes
they have executed.
Choreographer Remote also enables the
remote users to establish pre-sets onto
their computer enabling them to set pre
sets and recall them at will. Envision 30
remote users of a command center all
with VGA screens feeding directly into
the our controller with Choreographer
enabled and having the ability to send the
content from their system to the
Choreographer server software and
recalling their pre-set which scales the
content of their computer to cover the
entire video wall.
