Ready for test

I have tested with build 4e665bc. It is not possible to add multiple screen consumers via caspar.config. You can add multiple consumers via "ADD [channel]-[consumer index] SCREEN"

A unique consumer index needs to be provided to create additional windows.

Try using different <device></device> values. That produces the same behaviour as add [ch] screen [device]

Fixed!

Sorry but how is this fixed?

I'm new to Caspar CG so maybe I misunderstood the OP. Is his goal to add multiple screen consumers in order to have duplicate screens per channel?

This still doesn't seem to work via casparcg.config but works via commands. Using different devices does work but is it possible to duplicate it while using the same device?

I'm using this build: casparcg-server-2.3.x-lts-1d230e2a12a232f894291f6c9618cf1bf2b3f533-windows

It would help if you'd post your config. Have you checked if your config is valid? https://casparcg.net/validator/

from server.

The validator is new to me but it does pass though there seems to be an error with the validator as it says 2 channels instead of 2 screen consumers.

Here is my config. The goal is to have 2 screens on the same channel on the same device. I think this is what the OP already asked; and which doesn't seem to be fixed?
