SECTION 18.3

DESTINATION PRESETS

The information for a given CDN or other encoder target is also retained in a

preset

(e.g., Facebook, YouTube

Live, etc.) you can add these presets as needed to the

Streaming Configuration

panel using the

New Preset

menu

at left in the footer of the panel.

Hint: A default File Capture preset allows you to capture output from any of the three encoders to a file.

At left in this panel are three columns of checkboxes; these allow you to send the output from one of the three

Encoders

to the presets at right.

If you move the mouse pointer over a

Preset,

two new gadgets are shown at right (Figure 230). Click the

site and

File

Capture

preset, you can choose the path for encoded file output.

Not surprisingly, clicking the little (x) gadget instead will delete the
