* Video Standard options are shown only for 3P LAY International.

Resolution: The options are 720p, 1080i, SD 16:9, or SD 4:3. For one 3P LAY session you
may wish to connect High Definition (HD) devices, while another setting may require you
to connect to Standard Definition (SD) devices. The video standard and resolution for both
input and output must match, and the corresponding settings set before beginning a 3P
LAY
session.

Output Mode – choose which output mode (1-Out or 3-Out) is best for your current
application (see the discussion of output modes following below).
Note: All external video devices - both input and output - connected to 3Play must conform to the
settings established in this pane.
Clicking Start Session (at lower-right) launches the 3P LAY Desktop (see Section 6.4).
6.3.1.1 OUTPUT MODE
3P LAY always supports up to 3 connected video sources, but the operator has a choice between
two different configurations of video streams for output.
The Output Mode must be chosen in the Administration Screen prior to creating a new session
(when you open an earlier session stored on the system, the original Output Mode setting is
retained).
1-OUT MODE
In this mode the 3P LAY operator selects just one primary stream to be displayed on all outputs.
During 1-Out operation, all three of 3P LAY s output connections transmit the same user-selected
stream.
