SECTION 8.2 INPUT CONFIGURATION
FIGURE 131 (TRICASTER 8000 SHOWN)
TriCaster’s input monitors have contextual tools that appear when you roll the
mouse pointer over in the footer (that is, the titlebar below each monitor). In every
case, the right-most button is a Configure button (gear). Clicking it opens the
Configuration panel for a specific source (Figure 131).
8.2.1 CONNECTION TYPE
The Configuration panel for the Camera inputs features a Connection type menu at
the top of its Input Settings tab. Connection menu options vary depending on the
Video Standard for the session. TriCaster Multi-standard provides PAL and NTSC-J
session options, in addition to NTSC.
The Connection Type menu options for a PAL session list PAL HD and SD format
options. Choosing NTSC as the session Video Standard results in a Connection Type
list with appropriate formats, and it is similar for NTSC-J. Changing from one Video
Standard to another requires opening a new session.
Hint: All connected cameras must conform to the current Video Standard for the session.
