The Configuration panel for the Camera inputs features a Connection type menu at the
top of its Input Settings tab. Connection menu options vary depending on the Video
Standard for the session. TriCaster Multi-standard provides PAL and NTSC-J session
options, in addition to NTSC.
The Connection Type menu options for a PAL session list PAL HD and SD format
options. Choosing NTSC as the session Video Standard results in a Connection Type list
with appropriate formats, and it is similar for NTSC-J. Changing from one Video
Standard to another requires opening a new session.
Hint: All connected cameras must conform to the current Video Standard for the session.
The standard options are (note that TriCaster 410, Mini SDI and Mini do not support
analog video input options):

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.
