Edit 2: Here is another solution:
"We solved this in quite a low tech way. Instead of playing one or two videos across multiple PC screens, I mastered the different regions to standard DVD video. Four discs were put in four DVD players of the same model and brand, and triggered by a single IR remote.
Result: No-frills, perfectly synced multi-screen video. Hope this helps mate."

I think it will do what you need, if I am reading your post correctly.
Additional question: Can the two computers be compiled together so as to not be switching the overall input?
Does the Powerpoint and anything else other than the video need to be stretched across all three screens, repeated on each screen, or only on one screen?
Ah, I missed that. From an older post it sounds like ONLY the video needs to be on the 3 screens. I'm really curious as to why this set up is the way it is.
Can you please re-phrase the question using proper grammar? I'm not trying to be offensive by any means, but I literally get lost trying to understand what you should be saying along with the end goal. I, by no means, am saying I am perfect, but please try to re-phrase the question in its entirety.......
Here is the issue to quote from Matrox
Is full screen DVD and video playback supported with TripleHead2Go?
Yes. If your laptop or desktop computer is already equipped with a DVD player, you will be able to watch a DVD or video content on any of the monitors of your multi-monitor environment. Playback will be as smooth as it would have been without TripleHead2Go. Note that the native size of video file determines if the video plays across all your monitors.
The key here is that UNLESS you have the native size of the video large enough for the combined resolution of the three screens it will NOT stretch. This is where applications like Arkaos can allow you to create a video stream with the necessary resolution. In my experience the typical dvd playback software will NOT. so you will get a movable video window, and the ability to place the video on any monitor but NOT stretch it over all three.
