Benefiting from advances in detector technology, image compression, and data storage capacities, current and upcoming solar instruments, especially the Solar Dynamics Observatory (SDO) due to be launched in 2007, will produce immense amounts of data in the form of movies with individual images in the 2048x2048 (4 Mpixel) to 4096x4096 (16 Mpixel) range. This is beyond the capability of most contemporary computer or video displays but several are now becoming available. In order to develop concepts and software for working with existing and future data sets, we have been working with a 9 Mpixel IBM T221 LCD display driven by an SGI Octane 2 workstation. This is a desktop display with a 22 inch diagonal screen. We will demonstrate our prototype system using several combinations of movies from the Swedish Vacuum Solar Tower (SVST) at La Palma, and the TRACE and SOHO satellites and discuss some approaches for the more challenging SDO data products.
