It's just a case of running the app multiple times and your master copy
sharing eye & object position to slaves across a network connection
which has reasonably low latency. Genlock would help if the card you are
using supports it but in Don's case the card wasn't even capable of
synching to it's own vertical retrace at the time never mind frame
locking or genlocking to anothers.
Cheers,Angus.
