Configuration

Create a DMD_config.yaml file to define your screen layout:

screens:
  # Primary display for the playfield
  Playfield:
    id: 1
    size_x: 3840
    size_y: 2160

  # Display for the DMD (set size_x: 0 for 2-screen setup)
  DMD:
    id: 2

    size_y: 1080

  # Display for the backglass
