Help play multiple videos in different remote

[Javcarbe]

Hi everyone my name is Javier I'm trying to do a multiple videos playing different video in each remote, so far I set up one master three remote the master I want to play one thing and the other ones plays something different the time for each video is not the same.  Cross my mind maybe put the same name in each video , will help me to make the master play for the videos but I don't know if that's the possibility since the times are not the same, exist another way to do what I try to do?

Just run 4 masters and no remotes if you want to play different videos on each one?

Looking to "fpp commands" - you can then add a fpp timing track in your sequence to run "play media". Not sure this will work if you have multiple fpp units since I dont believe it goes to a specific fpp. You could name them to match the audio of the master and let fpp simply kick off the videos when the sequence starts. Edit each video and add black or whatever to get the timing right for each projector.

If the other instances are supposed to stay in sync with the master, then using the same name as the media on the master is the best/only way.    

FPP Connect does make this easier.   It can automatically find media that are specific to certain hosts and upload them with the correct names.   For example, if the master has "BabyShark.mp4", FPP Connect will look for files like "BabyShark.mp4-FPPHost1" and BabyShark.mp4-FPPHost2" and would upload them to the appropriate hosts.   You can also use host specific directories instead. (like "FPPHost1/BabyShark.mp4").   It's all hostname based though so you do need to have proper hostnames defined I believe.
