Simultaneously send program output to both analog and digital devices.

Send program output or other layouts to a secondary monitor or projector using Multiview.

Stream program output to the Internet via a suitable network connection.
HD AND SD 3.8.2
As mentioned earlier, for HD sessions TriCaster supports simultaneous output of both SD
(Standard Definition) and HD (High Definition) video.
The Video Output section on TriCaster’s backplate provides vertical columns of four BNC
connectors, offering the following connection possibilities for live production:

Column 1 video output format is determined by the session (see Section 5.1)
o When the session is SD 4:3 or 16:9, output is likewise SD 4:3 or 16:9.
o When the session is HD, output is HD.

Column 2 outputs are user-configurable, and can be set up in the Live Desktop (Output
Configuration panel).
o For TriCaster 855, Row 2 outputs a secondary, configurable copy of the main
Program video stream.
o TriCaster 455 employs Row 2 to supply the AUX video output, which has even
more options.

TriCaster 855 (only) provides a third video output column, using it for AUX output.
