Video and audio input sources
The Admin panel automatically discovers all video and audio sources that you connect to the input ports on Pearl-2 and lists them in the Inputs menu of the Admin panel. You can also configure a video source's settings using the Admin panel.
Networked video sources like RTSP, NDI, and SRT need to be manually added before they display in the Inputs menu. A corresponding audio source is always added to your custom layout editor when you add a networked video source, even if the video stream contains no audio, see Add an audio source to a layout.
An input source's content can be video, a picture, or music from a connected audio mixer. Content can originate from a camera, computer screen, an imported image in Pearl-2, and even another Pearl-2 device.
Video sources are also displayed on the Epiphan Live control interface. See Monitor video and audio input sources using Epiphan Live for more information.
