Setting a monitoring output can be useful to check incoming signals from a camera or a computer that you would like to include in your projection.
You can either setup the monitoring on one of the physical outputs of the V-Node or stream it over the network via NDI.
Adding a monitoring output
In the V-Nodes
panel > Output
section click on and select Monitoring
.
Set the Out to (0;0) and the Size to 1920×1080.
Select the Monitoring output and in the Preset
section (replaces the X-Map
section), click on .
This will open the Preset
tab in the Editor
panel.
Set 3 rows and adjust the first two rows to have two columns using the +
boxes in the top right corner of each row.
Drag & drop the Render Surface from the Render Surface
panel in the first row.
Drag & drop the 4 live sources in the 4 boxes of the second and third rows.
Streaming monitoring to NDI
It is possible to stream the monitoring via NDI and not use a physical output on the graphics card of the server.
Select the Monitoring in the V-Nodes
panel.
Check that the Out position is at (0;0) in the Output
tab of the Editor
panel.
Toggle the NDI Enable option.
