Video and audio input sources
The Admin panel automatically discovers all video and audio sources that you connect to the input ports on the
Pearl device and lists them in the Inputs menu of the Admin panel. You can also configure a video source's
settings using the Admin panel.
Networked video sources like SRT need to be manually added before they display in the Inputs menu. A
corresponding audio source is always added to your custom layout editor when you add a networked video
source, even if the video stream contains no audio, see
Add an audio source to a layout
.
An input source's content can be video, a picture, or music from a connected audio mixer. Content can originate
from a camera, computer screen, an imported image in the Pearl device, and even another Pearl device.
Video sources are also displayed on the Epiphan Live control interface. See

and audio input sources using Epiphan Live

About connecting video and audio sources
You can connect and disconnect video and audio sources while the Pearl device is powered on and when it is
powered off. However, for network video sources connecting via the Ethernet port, the source device sending the
stream and the Pearl device must both be powered on to make the connection.
Connect your video and audio sources to the following input ports on your device:
