General
This part of the Programming page allows users to manage the available input resources. Sources are
created and defined from the available Inputs that were defined on the System Configuration page.
Still Images, Inputs, and Native Backgrounds, as well as re-entered Screen Destinations and Background
sources can be used as sources in layers and Aux Destinations.
About Sources and Inputs
Sources are defined from input signals. Multiple sources can be defined from the same input. After a source is
defined, several attributes can be modified. These attributes may be, for example: color adjustments, crop,
sharpness, and mask. By default, a source is automatically created for each Input. Up to 256 sources can be
created form the same input. As with inputs, sources can be defined from multiple connectors, ex: 4K or DL
DVI and as a single link or dual link.
The multiviewer displays input signals not sources.
