Switching / mixing using the touch screen
Switching live video inputs, or video mixing, is simple and intuitive using Pearl-2's touch screen. After you
select the channel you want to live switch, just tap the layout switching icon to open the convenient switcher
on the touch screen. All custom layouts that are configured for the channel display in the carousel. Just tap a
layout to load it in to the standby panel and you're ready to start switching.
Performing live switching using one interface, like the touch screen, does not dynamically
update the visuals in the other interfaces (e.g. the Admin panel and Epiphan Live). The
other interfaces must be manually refreshed to accurately reflect the current live switching
layout information.
If the live switching controls don't appear on the touch screen, they may have been disabled, see Disable or
enable recording, streaming and switching from the touch screen.
To switch custom layouts for a channel using the touch screen:
1. Tap the Live Switcher icon to open the live switcher view for the channel. If the control icons aren't
showing, tap anywhere on the touch screen.
2. The Live Switcher view opens.
