Sync Groups
Sync Groups keep multiple screens playing the exact same frame at the exact same moment. Use them for video walls, tiled displays, or any installation where visual continuity across screens is critical.
How sync groups work
Section titled “How sync groups work”When screens are in a sync group, the Stratos player coordinates playback so that all screens start each item at the same time. This eliminates the frame-offset drift that occurs when screens independently poll for content.
