Sidewalk Cameras on two monitors

I'm using Blue Iris on (UGH!) Windows for my 17(!) cameras.
With BI it's fairly trivial to have multiple windows in split screen or
camera view rotation with how ever many cameras you choose.
The only limit is CPU umph, but that has gotten better where you can use
the engines in graphics cards and make a ton of other adjustments..lessee
right now the CPU on my i5 with Windows 10 Pro is 57%.

I have my main front camera now on a 50" commercial HD monitor while the
another 8 are on one 4K monitor.
