LIVETEXT
As we noted earlier, a companion workstation on your
3Play network with LiveText standalone installed can
serve as a dedicated CG and title solution for your live
presentations. When connected, LiveText is listed in the
Connection menu. For more information on installing and
using LiveText, please refer to its manual.
3PLAY™& TRICASTER™
3Play’s own network Output A and Output B are available
as sources to other NewTek live production systems,
appearing in the source selector menus for network
inputs as “3Play(A)” and “3Play(B),” where “3Play” is the network name for the system.
This means that an a/v feed from another 3Play (or TriCaster) on the network can be utilized in a
DSK channel without tying up one of the main video inputs.
THIRD-PARTY APPLICATIONS
AIRPLAY
AirPlay® is Apple’s protocol for getting audio and video from ‘here’ to ‘there’ – specifically, from
an AirPlay source (which may be an Apple® computer, or a mobile device such as iPad®, iPod®, or
iPhone®) to a second device.
The local network is the means of transmission between units, and a wireless connection from
the player to the network is perfectly acceptable. Typically, the target device for AirPlay might
be a television display or set of speakers, but your 3Play can also be the signal’s recipient. It
basically works as follows:
You select the AirPlay entry in the Source menu for the Network Input, just as you might
select an iVGA or LiveText source.
3Play identifies itself as a network client for AirPlay apps/applications.
