played by multiple input cards in different areas of the display wall, see section
When starting the video software, option /d: specifies a certain video channel, option /c: allows to read set-
tings for displaying the video from a certain configuration file. If the video software is started without specifying
one of these options, the first video channel to be found is selected and displayed using the default settings.
The video channels can be started by means of their default names. With basic video display mode these are
frg0, frg1, frg2, ... .
The order of the video and RGB-channels (frg0, frg1, frg2, ...) takes into account the order of the input cards
