In order to support a wide array of external teleprompter hardware, LiveStory assigns the scrolling text
output to the highest numbered Switcher output by default. You can then assign this signal to a video Mix
output supplying a physical video output connector to feed an external device.

Of course, in an NDI

®

environment, you have other powerful options. TriCaster automatically supplies the

teleprompter output to your network as an NDI stream, offering many display options. (For example, the
Studio Monitor application included with the free NDI Tools bundle from NewTek can be used to display your
teleprompter output on Windows

®

and OS X

®

platforms.
