Unconverted F4V files imported will not play in TriCaster’s DDR either. Conveniently, TriCaster
can automate the conversion for you to a degree. If you locate the folder named
Media\Clips\sessionname\SavedStreams on your primary session drive, you will see the “raw”
(unprocessed) streaming file(s) and a batch file (.bat) that can be used to convert all files in that
folder. Simply double-click the .bat file to initiate processing. (Note that processing can take
some time, so don’t do this just before a production.) Output files will be placed in the same
folder after conversion.

Hint: The .bat file supports several additional features if run using command line switches. The
readme file located in the same folder provides details of these alternatives.

If you prefer to perform this post-processing on another computer, you can transfer the raw files
to it and use the Adobe F4V Post Processor tool, available from the URL below (requires an
account to login):

A.3.11 CHANGE COLORS FOR AN ENTIRE TITLE PLAYLIST AT ONCE?

You can quickly alter the default colors for a complete playlist of Title Pages in a Media Player
(such as Titles).

1. Select the button for the player containing the titles on the Preview row of the Switcher.

2. Click the Configuration (gear) button for the player’s onscreen monitor to access the

Proc Amp.

3. Click and drag the Hue slider left or right, swinging colors through the spectrum.

Observe that black and white graphics and titles are unaffected by the hue shift. In many cases,
this allows you to modify background imagery without any effect on text objects (which are often
white).
