Show a channel or video source on the output port
You can send any channel or video source to the video output port and adjust the video output resolution
and aspect ratio using the Admin panel.
The video output port frame rate is set automatically to the channel's configured frame rate. However, when
sending a video source to the video output port, you have the option to configure the frame rate of the video
output port.
For channels with audio, you can configure whether or not audio is included and adjust the volume. You can
also choose to include the audio meter. The audio meter is set to a fixed size of 15% of the width (or height if
displayed horizontally) of the display. Audio is not supported when sending a video source to the video
output port.
To set up the video output port using Epiphan Live, see Monitor and setup the output port source and audio.
