4.13.3 PUSH AND RTMP STREAMING
Browser Based, Windows Media Push and RTMP streaming are slightly more complex,
largely because they depend on external resources to distribute your stream to a
wider viewing audience. These may be provided in house by your organization, or
you may take advantage of a commercial (or advertising sponsored) Content Delivery
Network (CDN).
Arrangements and requirements of various external streaming hosts are diverse, but
TriCaster's Streaming Configuration panel adapts to provide the necessary input and
information fields for the various types. More detail on these matters, including
connecting to a network and numerous useful tips on streaming strategies is found in
Chapter 18, Streaming.
4.13.4 CAPTURING THE STREAM
Whenever you are streaming your output, TriCaster archives the live stream as a file.
Files are saved to D:\Media\Clips\sessionname\SavedStreams.This is a very useful
feature. Among other things, it allows you to post the captured file to a website
immediately after an event for 'video on demand' streaming purposes – for late
arrivals or others who want to review the live event.
Note: Remember to turn off the Stream when your production concludes, or TriCaster will
continue writing the stream capture file.

Questions and answers
Can the switcher have a background still with PPT slides over top rightside of frame, and then have live camera feed on left?
Yes, the NewTek TriCaster Mini can display a background still with PowerPoint slides on the right side of the frame and a live camera feed on the left. It supports compositing live and video-on-demand inputs, including PowerPoint slides from a connected computer. The system allows for chroma key operations and mixing multiple video sources, enabling such a layout.

my tricaster only has one KEY option and two DSK options and 4 Mix Effect options. is there a way to add more of these items into my tricaster layout?
The TriCaster Mini includes Key layers in M/Es, which function similarly to Downstream Key (DSK) layers but are embedded upstream in the Mix Effect (M/E) output. However, the provided context does not mention the ability to add more KEY, DSK, or Mix Effect options beyond what is already available in the system.

Thank you for answering my question. There is a buzz on the output of our Tricaster410. Not sure why this is happening now.
A possible cause of a buzz or distortion on the output of a NewTek TriCaster Mini could be incorrect audio gain settings in the Output Configuration. Specifically, the gain controls for STREAM 1 and STREAM 2 may need to be adjusted. Setting the gain to -20 can eliminate distortion and align the output level with the TriCaster MASTER.
