OLERANCE
Click the eyedropper, keep the mouse button depressed, and drag the pointer over
top of the monitor showing the source you
want to track (Figure 140). The

updates
constantly as you drag, until
you release the button to
make a selection.
TriCaster makes it easy for you to adjust the
Tracker settings by making it possible to see
the result of your attempts in its monitors.
Right-click on a monitor and select Tracking
Markers from the Overlays options group in
the menu. A yellow-shaded rectangle is
overlaid on the video using the current
settings. Watch how this overlay is affected
by adjustments you make to the Tolerance
value for the Tracker. Raise or lower the
Tolerance value until the result is steady,
not jittering or jumping about.

MOOTHNESS
The Smoothness setting works just like the LiveMatte feature with the same name. Its
impact on tracking data output is minimal, but it is often important when used with
the Advanced Tracking effect in M/E panels (see Section 14.2.2).

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.
