Configure a video input source
SDI video settings
Pearl Nano does not support USB video input, so USB video and web camera settings do not apply.
Open the configuration page for an input source using the Admin panel
Log in to the Admin panel as admin.
Ensure a source is connected to the input port,
From the Inputs menu, click the source name. The configuration page for the source opens.
Video settings
| Value | Input type | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Scaling (Pearl Nano) | HDMI, DVI, SDI | Use this setting to scale the video input source. This is useful when adding multiple video sources in a custom layout such as picture in picture or side-by-side. The frame size selected for the video source is also what gets sent out the HDMI OUT port when you select the video input as the output source. |
| Image | HDMI, DVI, SDI | This menu allows you to choose a custom no-signal image for the channel. The drop-down list gives you the option to choose the default image or any image you have uploaded through the Add a custom No Signal image |
| Timeout | HDMI, DVI, SDI | The timeout represents the number of seconds after losing the signal that the no-signal is displayed. You may change this number to adjust how soon you wish the no-signal image to appear after the signal disappears. |
