ENERAL OTES
Here are some other noteworthy facts related to output:
o For SD session formats, session aspect (4:3 or 16:9) is respected on output
(e.g., when the session is SD 16:9, video output is also 16:9).
o For HD sessions (which are always 16:9), SD video from Output 2 (and any
output set to Follow 2) can use either a 16:9 image aspect or as (side-cropped)
4:3 video, as noted earlier when discussing the Resolution menu.
Hint: TriCaster's Record feature can capture video from Output 2, as well as Output 1 (and
individual cameras). Output 2 is a particularly flexible choice for capture purposes,
providing many useful alternatives – see Chapter 20, Record and Grab.
These outputs (provided on a certain models) independently offer a subset of the
options available for Outputs 1 and 2. Video menu options include:

Cameras 1-(4 or 8)

Network input sources

Media Players

Buffers

Follow 1

Follow 2
Choosing either Follow 1 or Follow 2 transmits the same video source, at the same
resolution, as the 'followed' output. For SDI output only, audio from output 3 can
follow Output 1 or Output 2.
Note: The Analog Output menu for Output 3 always shows both Component and
Composite + Y/C options. (As you would expect, the latter options do not support HD
sources, and will fail if selected in that case.)
For 8-input TriCasters, Output 4 is labeled HDMI in the Output Configuration panel as
well as on TriCaster's rear connection panel. Otherwise it is simply labeled HDMI.
HDMI menu options are similar to those listed above; HDMI, naturally, does not
require analog connection options.
