Important note for channels with multiple layouts

The two default channels are named HDMI-A and HDMI-B. Each has a default layout with the corresponding
HDMI-A (or HDMI-B) video and audio sources already assigned. By default, when a channel includes only one
layout that has a single video source, the default channel name is assigned the name of the video source.

When you add a second layout to the channel, the channel name automatically changes to a generic name
Channel

X, where X is the channel index number. For example, SRT 1 changes to Channel 1.

Changing the channel name affects system operation.

l

If the channel is streaming, the stream is stopped and restarted.

l

If the channel's recorder is recording, then recording is stopped and a new file is started.
