NewTek TriCaster 300 - Manual (Page 252)

When LiveText is running, TriCaster’s video outputs (rows 1-3) will all conform to the session
format. That is, if the project is HD, the SDI outputs will all be HD, and the analog outputs will be
Component HD.
Likewise when the project is SD, the SDI outputs will all be SD. As there are multiple connection
options for analog SD video, please refer to the following table in this case:
Row Number SDI Analog BNC 1 Analog BNC 2 Analog BNC 3
1 SD Y Pb Pr
2 SD Composite Y C
3 SD Composite Y C
Note: It is possible to use LiveText’s File menu to open a project that does not correspond to the
current session settings. TriCaster™ will attempt to provide video output, but it’s possible that a
given monitor may not display it correctly.
17.2.2 FILES/FILEBIN
LiveText’s file dialogs (for File>Open, File>Add, File>Save and Save As) have pre-configured
QuickTabs pointing to the following default paths for the current session.
Note: the Quicktab links refer to ‘session-dependent’ paths, thus are not permanent. That is, for a
given session, the path the Quicktab refers to is established at launch time. For this reason, the
TriCaster™ version of LiveText does not support user-added Quicktabs.
LiveText’s File menu has two special items – Send Current Page to Live, and Send All Pages to
Live. (These take the place of other export options appearing in the standalone version of
LiveText.) As you would expect, these functions creates files for use in the Live Desktop,
automatically storing them in the correct place(s) for easy access.
Titles prepared in LiveText can be either still or motion pages. When you send a still page to Live,
it becomes a Title Page file, with the characteristic filename extension “.cgxml”. Title Page files
can be edited in the Live Desktop’s Media Players. Send Current Page to Live will automatically
store these files in the D:Media\Titles\sessionname\projectname folder.
