After launching the first video wall controller to deliver 4K source content over the network in real time, Userful has increased its scalability with support for 8K source content.

The new release has big scalability improvements that have improved video wall synchronisation and enable the solution to support up to three simultaneous 4K streams in real time from a single PC each delivered to a different video wall over a standard Ethernet network. Userful believes that its solution is unique in its ability to support both large video walls and large content over the network from just one computer.

“Userful v8.6 pushes the boundaries of what a video wall solution is capable of, but more importantly, by staying affordable, users can now have even more stunning video walls and not break the bank,” claimed Userful founder and CTO Timothy Griffin. “This is still the simple and flexible solution that’s made it so popular, but the new release offers a big jump in scalability by supporting more displays and larger content. It enables very large multi-source video walls to be deployed with simplicity at a cost effective price point.”
