I am looking for a program that will let me easily control what is seen on multiple connected monitors from one main "control screen" on a laptop. I've been googling and looking through forums, but I'm not quite sure how to word what I'm looking for succinctly enough to get the correct results.

I have a laptop connected to four external monitors. I'd like to be able to watch the main laptop screen and use an app to control what images/videos get sent to the external screens without having it be visually noticeable on the veiwers end of how things are being controlled.

To put it more simply, I would like to have something like a main screen and if I click on a certain link/feed/button etc it will send out a preset picture to each of the different screens. I can then click on a different link/feed/button on the main screen and send out a completely different set of pics/videos to the screens without the viewer seeing my mouse moving across the screen or anything distracting like that.

Is this something Display Fusion will allow me to do? I've been reading about it, and it certainly seems to allow me to do quite a bit, but I can't figure out if this is within its capabilities?

I am familiar with multi-monitors as I've been running duals on my main PC for years. Easy to set up and use. I've never done four (+ a central control screen) before, though, so it is a bit overwhelming.

As I'm sure people will ask why I need all the monitors, it is for an art installation I am looking to build. I want to have my laptop set up as my central hub and then be able to hook up to the four screens and show different art pics on the screens. I'd like to be able to control what pictures show up on the screens depending on crowd response. Hope that makes sense.

Thanks

This isn't really something DisplayFusion supports, but we have another application called "CloudShow" that might. It's a digital signage app that is free for 1 device if you would like to test it out. Here's a link to the product page: https://cloud.show/

Hope that helps!
