I am currently creating a program to use for the gigs that I mix live video with music and graphics etc. The big problem I have is I want to be able to have my laptop as the main unit with its monitor and have a projector screen displaying all of the footage. I do not however have the knowledge of Delphi that I used to in Year 12. Can anyone help me with the code?

The idea of the program is to be able to place graphics over video, while playing music at the same time. It needs to be able to continue playing while I change settings, add files etc in the primary monitor. Can anyone help me?

it doesnt sound like something you should use delphi for.

you need Powerpoint or some other video presentation software, Ulead, Pinnacle ect...

if you want to display program controls on the notebook and video on the projector then your computer needs 2 video cards.

Delphi 5 and below doesnt have support for multiple monitors, Delphi 6 may (dont know) Delphi 7 does.
