Chapter 3:

Live Video Input and Control

The Axon media server can receive and control live video from an
external source.

Live Video Sources

The Axon graphics engine can enhance and manipulate live video from a source connected via
the S-Video or the SDI input port. After making the appropriate hardware connection, you
will need to configure the Axon graphics engine to identify a video input source through the
Content Management Application.

Hardware Set-up

For S-Video, connect the VIVO (video-in/video-out) adapter to the
center DIN port of the video card. This adapter ships with the
Axon server and is a single black plug that splits out to
four separate plugs. Two of these plugs are yellow
and are for composite video; these are not used
with the Axon server. The other two
plugs are black and are S-video plugs.
The only plug used with the Axon
server is the S-video In.

Connect the video feed to the S-Video in plug on the VIVO adapter. The plug will have a small
arrow pointing toward the Axon server.

Ports are also provided for connecting SDI Video In and SDI Video Out.
