Click an entry in the Account List at left to display corresponding entry fields for
your credentials in the pane at right. Typically you will need a user name and
password for your social media accounts, as well as FTP servers (connections are
tested when you press Enter, and will report an error if a problem exists).

19.2.1 SOCIAL MEDIA SITES

At the time of writing, TriCaster’s Publish feature can publish media to Facebook®,
Twitter® and YouTube®. Other connections may be supported as it becomes
possible to do so.

Note: See also Section A.4.3 , Avoid Delays When Session Media is Offline?

19.2.2 FILE COPY AND FTP

The File Copy and FTP options are very useful output alternatives, effectively
providing a live export method that does not force you to wait until production ends
to use them. These features can be invaluable for collaboration, whether local or
remote.
