problem disappears. If the problem goes away consider using a different anti-malware
product or disabling realtime protection while using iVGA PRO.

If iVGA PRO’s connection to TriCaster seems intermittent, make sure only one network path
exists between the two systems, to prevent the PC from switching back and forth between
connections.

Some systems deliberately restrict access to system sound (for DRM reasons), preventing
the system ‘Stereo Mix’ from appearing as an audio source option for iVGA PRO. Several
workarounds exist; as a starting point, try an Internet search for terms like “audio loopback
software”.

A.2 SESSIONS

Q: What is a session?

A: Sessions can be thought of as ‘top-level presets’. They store all of the settings, playlists,
