Onlyview
What it is
Onlyview is media server software for video mapping, playback, generative content, and show control on Linux and Windows. It runs on a customer’s own machines without requiring a proprietary hardware box. Mapping tools cover photogrammetric preparation, 3D calibration, screen deformation, and automated softedge blending. LED workflows support custom canvases, synchronized multi-machine playback, and main or backup output. The product describes frame-accurate synchronized playback of 8K content across multiple machines, with unlimited timelines and layers. Built-in support is listed for Notch, Unreal, and Unity, alongside real-time tracking with Blacktrax, LPM, Optitrack, Lidar, and AI vision. Show-control functions can schedule and monitor long-term installations. The homepage says one operator can run one timeline across more than 100 projectors. Outputs include HDMI, DisplayPort, SDI, NDI, Spout, and SMPTE 2110, though synchronization across output types is not guaranteed. Licensing is per output, perpetual, or weekly rental, with pricing on request.
