play multiple videos in sync and output to different projectors

I have 5 videos that I would like to play in sync and output them to different projectors (I have video card with 5 outputs) in addition to 5 different audio files that will be output to 5 different output on my sound card.

is it possible to do it in max? ( The audio part should be no problem, I wonder regarding the multiple videos to multiple output)
Is there any object similar to dac~ but for video? to specify the outputs same as you would do for example dac~ 1 2 3 4 ?

Thanks

in my opinion the best way to handle this kind of setup is to use a single [jit.world] that spans across the 5 screens. You use the @rect attribute to specify the top, left, right, bottom coordinates of the output window, which will cover all screens, then use 5 jit.movie, each connected to a jit.gl.layer, then you place the jit.gl.layers in the corresponding screen

I opened to different movies but I'm seeing only one in the jit.world object
