I have an art project: I have a video file on a computer and I need it and its audio to be slip to 30 monitors in succession. This means i want monitor 1 to play the source file, then switch to monitor 2 to play source file 2 and then monitor 3 to play source file 3 etc.
Can the arduino handle this audio component, and what about video?
Use an arduino controlled routing matrix is probably easier than trying to get the arduino to handle a/v duties.
Wire up a bunch of relays or muxes and you'll need 5 address lines (2^5 = 32 possible destinations). Have your computer spit out audio, video and a control signal to the arduino to tell it to switch what monitor is getting the content.
