Program Input Event (AIO Only)

The Add Input Event feature is available only in the HyperCaster AIO. This is used to schedule routing one of the SDI Inputs to play on a Channel. In this way, the AIO acts like a video matrix switcher, with any Input capable of being routed to any output, with the advantages of automatic source format detection, up and down-conversion, the ability to display graphics on live SDI sources, and the ability to simultaneously encode while going live.

1. On the Programming page, click the Add Input Event button. The Schedule Input page is displayed.
   
2. Fill in the fields on the screen as described below.

• Cancel Conflicting Events – Check this box if you want the current input to take precedence over any previously-scheduled events.
