Hello!
I have a store window 5' tall and 10' long. I would like to build a Video Wall that can maximize that space. At first I was thinking about a 4 55" ultra slim HD TV, but when I compare the cost to 9 37" ultra slim HD Tv's, the difference is substantial.
I would like some advice on which option is best, and if the bezel from the the 9 tv setup will greatly impact the viewing experience. The big difference in cost is the only reason why I don't chose the 4 TV setup.
Any advice would be greatl
Thank You!

I guess part of it would depend on the distance it will be viewed from, is it for text and lots of writing, etc.

If it's on a wall and there is a 6-10ft distance showing pictures or video, the bezel won't be as noticable. If the viewing distance is 3 feet and you expect them to read 5 screens of text, then you should go for the least bezels possible.

Hi! I'm thinking between a combination of Matrox graphics cards, or the raspberry pi video wall solution. Cost wise, raspberry pi is by far best choice.

Yeah, it is but unfortunately I know just the basics. I do have a friend that can help. But my question is the difference between a 3x3 or 2x2 when it comes to the bezel? Is it really bad that it would justuify the extra investment in a 2x2.
Thank You!

Thank You!
It will be mostly used for live video games, commercial spots and so on...Not much text..The viewing distance will vary greatly from very close to over 15feet.
I found a decent 55" vizio on amazon. I think I'm gonna end up going with that and avoid the headache of a 3x3. I figure the extra configuration work and extra accessories will make the cost difference not as big.
