SurfaBeam 4.6 is live on Steam
This update brings wireless Cast to TV to the Windows version of SurfaBeam, smoother multi-display projection mapping, better video playback and a set of important stability fixes. Update now to get every improvement below.
New: Cast to TV from your Windows PC
Send your projection mapping show to an Android TV, TV box, phone or tablet over Wi-Fi, no cables needed. Install the free SurfaBeam Link app on the screen you want to use, then pick it in the Cast to TV panel.
- Mirror or Extend: show the same picture on every screen, or extend your video wall so each TV shows its own part of the show.
- Several screens at once: cast to up to 4 TVs together, next to your HDMI projector.
- Smooth Sync: your HDMI projector and every TV show the same frame at the same time.
- Two modes: Smooth Video for the steadiest picture, or Ultra-Low Latency for live, interactive shows.
- Wi-Fi drop protection: the picture rides through short Wi-Fi drops instead of freezing.
- TVs keep their picture when SurfaBeam is in the background.
Multi-display projection mapping
- Every display now runs at its own native resolution.
- The projector menu lists and selects every display on your wall.
- Rendering with several displays connected saves one video per display, ready for each projector or screen.
- The render preview plays every display's video.
- Your HDMI projector picture stays on its border when a TV extends the wall.
Smoother video playback
- Reverse and 2x / 3x speed show every frame, smoothly and in order.
- Looping videos repeat with no visible seam.
- Several videos start together and stay in sync.
- Smoother timeline scrubbing, and much faster video caching.
- Child Video Masks now show correctly on Windows; they were black before.
Stability fixes
- Fixed a freeze on laptops with Intel graphics when several videos played at once.
- Fixed a freeze when videos switched while casting to TVs.
- No more short pause when a TV joins or leaves, or when Extend is switched on or off.
- Save and Open windows can no longer open hidden behind SurfaBeam.
- Improved crash and freeze reporting, so we can find and fix problems faster.
Also new
- The Quick Start Guide is now available on Windows.
- Hand tracking follows up to 8 hands without slowing down.
