How to set up Montage View

[Acadien]

How do I setup montage view? I can't find it in options, the wiki, the manual and a forum seach of montage view yields 1700+ hits.

what do you want to setup?

[Acadien]

I want to see multiple monitors on one screen.

[Acadien]

I obviously need more than one monitor for a montage.... dah

[jameswilson]

lol yes it wont appear unless you have more than 1 monitor

Maybe he just means the montage link on the main directory of cameras. You do have to have more than one camera, but not more than one monitor?

Look at screen shot from the zoneminder website:

no you may repeat the same cam over and over but you definetly need 2 or more active monitors

Is this some kind of language confusion here?

I use the feature of ZoneMinder on a computer with 4 monitors. I have four flat-panel LCD displays connected to my dual PCI Express Nvidia Graphics adapter... using DVI video cables.

How exactly does Montage relate to multiple computer monitors?

It works for me on a SINGLE monitor equally to multiple monitors.

Do you mean "cameras", "input sources"?

zm calls inputs 'monitors' so i was assuming you were talking zm speak. But yes you ar eright but i was using zm speak to avoid confusion

sorry
