I am not certain this is the right forum for these questions. Apologies if it is not.
Questions:
1. When you warp an image, does the post warped image have the same lumens as the pre-warp imaged? Specifically, I am looking to use several projectors to create a long 2.39:1 aspect ratio image. If I use an Optima GT1080 to create a 52 inch high/92 inch wide image with 2,800 lumens AND then warp that image to make it still 52 inches high but only 83 inches wide, will my new smaller image still have the original 2,800 lumens?
2. Can you use Nthusim to watch your subscribed live Cable TV broadcasts? If so, how/what hardware would you need? To be clear, I am not (necessarily) trying to do away with my CableBox. I just want to be able to watch TV on a large seamless screen.
3. How many projectors can be run with Nthusim? Four projectors? Six projectors?
4. Perhaps this should have been my first question... I believe that warping/blending would help me achieve the solution that I want. I am trying to build a 104 inch high/250 inch long 2.39:1 aspect ratio screen to watch movies/TV and play video games. That is a relatively large screen and would need a lot of lumens to light it. I was thinking of up to six Optima GT1080 projectors. From a distance of 3 feet, 10 inches that projector will create a 52 inch high/92 inch wide image. I believe that I could use Nthusim to "warp" that image to the same height but only 83 inches wide (83 inches choose as 83x3=250 inches). Thus by blending 6 different 52 inch high/83 inch wide images I would have a large 104 inch high/250 wide image. What I am wondering: Would anything (games, TV. movies) put up on the 104 inch x 250 inch screen be "scrunched" because it was made by "scrunching" a bunch on 92 inch images to just 83 inches? Or would it (as I hope) create a great looking (and bright) 104 inch x 250 inch movie, etc?
5. What kind of hardware would I need to run Nthusim on six 1080p projectors at the same time? Four projectors? Can this be done? As background, there are times when I would want to use "Skreens" (or another Multi-viewer) to show for example two Playstation games and one TV show on different portions of the large screen at the same time.
Thanks for ANY help with ANY of the questions.
