I have 4 rigs now and would like to put all four screens on one. I'm not talking about a KVM where I switch between full screens on each, I want to be able to see all 4 screens in a matrix.
Found one of these on Amazon:
https://www.amazon.com/J-Tech-Digital-Multi-Viewer-different-JTECH-MV41/dp/B078KJY78J/ref=sr_1_12?ie=UTF8&qid=1517352289&sr=8-12&keywords=J-Tech+Digital+HDMI+4x1+1080P
It's only $139 and seems like it might do the job, but I haven't ever used anything like this or am familiar with these products. Have used plenty of KVMs.
Oh, and for mouse and keyboard I already have Synergy

That will let me use one mouse and keyboard and roll it across all 4 screens on the 4x4 matrix on a single monitor.
Is that HDMI multi-viewer a good one or is there a better unit or idea??

Interesting. But ... why? Miners just need to be monitored, not sure why you want continuous access to all 4 at the same time at all times. Just install a remote monitoring tool and use a KVM or remote in if any of them go down is the usual go to that just makes sense for most folks. So that's why I'm asking... just wondering ... why.
That and because it would be useful. Useful because all I've done so far as a miner since I started 8 months ago was Nicehash and Zcash with Flypool. I did a little SIGT shitcoin and tried a few other things, but it's mostly been those two. I want to learn to mine other things, and tweak my settings, etc. and with 4 machines right now and one monitor dedicated to all the rigs it would be easy to do.
Sure, I could use remote control, but I've found that screen sharing apps eat a little bit of hashing power when you're connected.
