Some routers may have other security settings that need to be modified for your Pull stream
to be visible from the outside. For example, the Linksys® router shown above has a setting
in the Security page named Block Anonymous Internet Requests. While this may be a
great idea normally, it's not going to help much when outside computers request that your
system permit them to Pull the video stream, is it?
There are countless makes and models of routers – for information on various
models, and a great deal of help on port forwarding generally, we can recommend the
following site:

Firewalls:
You may also run into software firewalls. Generally, these can be configured in similar
to permit exceptions to the firewall policy, permitting specific ports or applications
to be opened to the world. Information on exceptions in the Windows® Firewall can
be found in its Help system.

OUR
XTERNAL
NUMBER
Again, the numbers assigned behind your router only work locally. In a Pull scenario,
you need to supply the true external IP number (and port) for your TriCaster to
viewers outside the LAN (Local Area Network.)
You can find this number in several ways. For example, your router will display it as
its "IP Address" in its Status page. Or, you may want to use one of several handy
websites that will quickly supply your current IP number (one such is
http://www.whatismyip.com). Simply go to the website in your browser and read the
IP number from the screen. Append a colon and the port number you are using to this
number and you've got everything you need for your viewers to connect.

Are you sure your upload bandwidth is adequate to the bitrate you've set for your
stream? Why not test and make sure. Again, a number of websites provide free speed
testing. These will give you a basic idea of what your local bandwidth really is. One

Do you have a question about the TriCaster Mini and is the answer not in the manual?
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.
