A link c

ontaining the text “

Enter Session Name”

New

Session link is selected at left. Click in this text box to modify the default name using the keyboard if you like
(otherwise, the default name will use the current date).

Note: A variety of optional session configurations are provided for your live production needs. You can choose
either 4K (UHD), HD (High Definition), or SD (Standard Definition) operating modes. SD options include both
4:3 and 16:9 (widescreen) image aspects. You can also select between different video Standards according to
your locale, choosing NSTC or PAL.

Continue with session creation by designating the video

click the HD 3G button in the

Preset
