5.3 SWITCHER MANAGER
When you click the Switcher Manager button, the Switcher Manager window is
displayed in the Work area.
You can indirectly control a switcher through the system. If the Transmit Switcher
Info field is checked, Xedio Ingest Server application transmits the switching
information over the Ethernet network to a dedicated software device before
starting any recording. This device will manage the audio and video routing at the
switcher with regard to its brand and protocol, and send an acknowledgement back
to Xedio Ingest Server within a determined delay in order to start the encoder(s).
To set switcher parameters, complete the following fields and then click on the
Apply button.
