    Y-Value Positive value: move the P-in-P window up. Negative value: move the P-in-P window down. Zero value: Position the P-in-P window at the center. Size Ranges from 0 to 100 with 1% being the smallest and 100 being the largest. So 50% would represent a P-in-P window which is half the size of the background image.

  • Page 35: Inputs

    Position The user can adjust the horizontal position of the P-in-P window by adjusting the X value.  Positive X value positions the P-in-P window to the right.  Negative X value positions the P-in-P window to the left.  Zero X value positions the P-in-P window at the center. Border P-in-P window border color can be set by adjusting the Luma, Saturation and Hue values.

  • Page 42: Chapter 5 Video Streaming

    The HS-1300 Portable Video Studio includes a built-in Video Streaming Server (NVS-31) allowing the user to stream and record your program at the same time. From any HDMI input source, the Datavideo NVS-31 generates an H.264 encoded stream compliant with RTSP or RTMP protocols. While encoding the video at bit rates appropriate for live streaming, the Datavideo NVS-31 concurrently records a high-quality MP4 file to an SD card.

  • Page 43: Web User Interface

    There are basically two ways to establish connection between the NVS-31 and your computer:  Connect an Ethernet cable from the NVS-31’s LAN port directly to your computer’s Ethernet port.  Connect an Ethernet cable from the NVS-31’s LAN port to the same network switch as your computer.
