I’ve got 3 videos, all 3 have the same time, same amount of frames, and they only differ in terms of encoding quality.
Now I need them to run side-by-side in synchronized fashion for evaluation purposes. Meaning when I press “play” BOTH! videos should start. Analogically for stop, forward, backward.
Anyone know any player capable of doing that? By that I mean playing more than 1 video side-by-side…
Platform: Win7
Solution:
VLC on Windows (1.1.10 or later):
- Tools → Preferences
- Show Settings → All
- Click Advanced (Click Playlist for VLC 2.1.5)
- Uncheck “Allow only one running instance”
- Uncheck “Use only one instance when started from file manager”
VLC on OS X does not provide the same set of options. You can however run multiple instances from the Terminal with open -a VLC.
