VIDEO STANDARD AND RESOLUTION

For multi-standard models only, set the Video Standard as appropriate for your locale. For the
moment, let’s choose 1080i for Output Resolution (even if the cameras you plan to connect are
SD 4:3), then click the Create Session link below.

Note: 3Play supports a variety of optional session configurations for live production. You can
choose between several HD (High Definition) and SD (Standard Definition) formats. SD options
include 4:3 and 16:9 (widescreen) image aspect formats. Multi-standard models permit you to
select between video standards for your locale – NSTC, NTSC-J (Japan) or PAL.

3.6.2 THE SESSION PAGE

Clicking Create Session on the Home page will advance you to the Session page. Since our
intention at this stage is simply to configure our connections (done in 3Play’s Replay Desktop), go
ahead and click Start Session. This launches the Replay Desktop, which is the ‘live production
area’ where you will spend most of your time while working with 3Play.
