Feeds Editor Overview



To access the Feeds Editor, right-click anywhere in the Feeds library section and select Add New Feed... from the pop-out menu, or click the Add New icon.



    1. Name: Type the name of the Feed in this field.
    2. Thumbnail: Click the drop-down arrow to select what type of Feed this is. The options are Camera, Mixer, DVD Player and Misc Player.
    3. Available Input Devices: Select the Input Device you want your Feed to come from. If your capture device has more than one input, use the Input Channel to select the input your Feed is coming through.
    4. Device Options: The device settings in EasyWorship have to match the settings for your capture card. Select the correct Resolution, Color Space and Video Standard to match the settings on the capture card.
    5. Aspect Ratio: Allows you to use the Automatic setting, maintain the aspect ratio, stretch or zoom the video.
    6. Audio Properties: Allows you to change the volume of the Feed when you go live with it. The volume slider allows you to set the volume of the Feed for playback to the audience. Mute allows you to mute the audio on the Feed if you don’t wish to use the audio portion.



NOTE                Most users using a live Feed will run the audio through their sound system and not through the capture card. You will only need to adjust the Audio Properties if you run the audio through your capture card. This would be most common if you connect a DVD or Blu-Ray player.
