9.2.2 LINKING SWITCHER ROWS
FIGURE 153
It can be very useful to link two (or more) Switcher or M/E source rows together,
causing them to operate synchronously. The Program and Preview rows, and the
source rows in M/E panes show a downward pointing triangle to the right of the row
label. Click it to open a menu that lets you set up linking.
As you'd expect, rows assigned to the same color groups are linked. A selection made
in any linked row updates the selection of all other rows in the same color group to
match. Thus Figure 153 shows the Input A row for an M/E linked to the PGM row of
the main Switcher. The "No Group" menu item removes the current row from a group,
while "Clear Group" removes all rows from the current group.
SECTION 9.3 TRANSITIONS
We discussed video layers in Section 9.2. With this in mind, it's easy to comprehend
the layout and use of TriCaster's Transition controls.

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.
