Selecting a Switcher Gateway

Select the EVS switcher gateway from the Switcher Gateway dropdown list.

When the system tries to establish the connection to the switcher gateway, a status
message is displayed above the field: “Connecting ...”. If the connection has failed, the
message becomes “Connection error ...”. When the connection is successfully
established, the message becomes "Connected", and the recorders video inputs are
automatically added in the Video Input Assignment list.

Note
When working without an EVS switcher gateway, the operator must manually
add the recorders video inputs. In this case, the director's cut points will not be
written in the metadata EDL.
