Configuration. In addition, local hardware inputs can be designated as a Video source. (Note that Outputs
can be configured to use any single source, too.)
Note: The same source cannot be selected for multiple recordings. For example: "IN 1" cannot be selected
as the source for line one and two, the result will allow only one of the redundant lines to be checked. On
earlier versions of the software you will end up with no files recorded if configured this way.
The Audio Level control lets you set the volume independently for each source you capture.
The drop-down menu in this column lets you select from a suitable path as targets for your recordings.
Caution: It is recommended that any single drive be tasked to capture one or two video sources at most. A
warning message is displayed if you exceed this number when assigning Destination settings. TriCaster
does not prevent you from exceeding this limit, however, when you are confident that very fast volumes
are capable of handling the load.
