Question:

What video sources can be used on a Component Encoder and how can you switch between them?

Answer:

SnapStream Component Capture Encoders are designed to accept the following sources:

• Component/Composite Cables (RGB/RWY)
• HDMI (Please note: https://support.snapstream.com/hc/en-us/articles/360003443493)
• S-Video

By logging into the Encoder's Web Interface, you will see the "Streams" tab on the left.  Select to edit the stream which coincides with the tuner that needs changing.

You'll find an entry for "Video Input" where you can select one of the above listed options.

Upon saving the entry, the newly chosen Video Input will be active.  The use of "Auto" will default to a selection of Component.

Additional Notes:

This is only applicable to SnapStream Component Capture nodes
S-Video and Component/Composite will require the use of a provided dongle to make connections
