Select the video output source using the device screen

Applies to: Pearl-2, Pearl Mini, Pearl Nano

It's easy to change the video source that appears at the video output port using the device screen. For video sources that have audio, you can enable and disable the audio as well. Audio is enabled by default.

To configure the video output port parameters, use the Admin panel.

Device differences

• Pearl-2 and Pearl Mini: use the touch screen. See Monitor and select the video output source using Epiphan Live in the Pearl Family shared guide for an alternative method using the Admin panel dashboard.

  • From the touch screen, tap the gear icon to open the System settings screen. If the control icons aren't showing, tap anywhere on the touch screen.
  • Tap the arrow icon in the lower-right corner of the screen to go to the second Settings page.
  • Tap Output port(s) and select a video output port.
  • From the Output port's screen, select the source you want displayed on the video output port and tap Apply.

• Pearl Nano: does not support Epiphan Live. Use the front screen instead: press the left arrow key repeatedly on the control interface until the Menu screen displays. Use the arrow and check mark keys to select System. Then from the System screen, select Settings to open the Settings screen. From the Settings screen, select HDMI output to open the HDMI output screen, then press the check mark key to select Video. The available video sources display. Highlight the source you want to display on the output, then press the check mark key to select and return to the previous screen. To return to the previous screen without making a selection, press the left arrow key.
