AirMedia Canvas Functionality
AirMedia Canvas allows two sources to present simultaneously on the display. AirMedia Canvas
automatically configures the best possible layout to maximize screen coverage based on the
number of active sources, the type of sources, their orientation, and their aspect ratios.
The following sources can share space on a display simultaneously:
l
AirMedia (Windows, Android, Mac, iOS, AirPlay/Miracast)
NOTE: The AirMedia extension for Chrome OS is not supported and will only be allowed
to present full screen.
l
HDMI
NOTE: When the AirMedia Canvas feature is enabled, the 4:2:0 color space is used for
high definition sources connected to the HDMI input port. When the AirMedia Canvas
feature is disabled, the 4:4:4 color space is used. If the 4:4:4 color space is required by
sources connected to the HDMI input port, the AirMedia Canvas should be disabled.
When enabled, AirMedia Canvas works as follows:
l
If one source is active, the source presents in full screen.
l
If two sources are active, the sources present side-by-side in a configuration that
maximizes the screen coverage depending on the aspect ratio of the sources.
l
When two sources are active, and one of the two sources is disconnected, the single source
returns to full screen.
l
If a third source is active, the first active source is stopped (AirMedia user) or disconnected
(hard wired inputs, AirPlay connection, or Miracast connection).
l
When all sources are disconnected, the display shows the front of the room experience
splash screen.
When AirMedia Canvas is disabled, the display shows one source at a time.
