Managing assigned video inputs
Video input assignments and crops are saved with the scene file. As described in Assigning video inputs, the Scene window status bar displays the current status of certain input types. If any assigned inputs are unavailable when the file is opened, a diagnostic alert indicates the faulty inputs. Vision will continue searching for these inputs while the alert is open.
If assigned inputs are unavailable, do one of the following:
Fix the connectivity issues: As faulty inputs are fixed, their status updates automatically in the diagnostic alert, which closes when all inputs are found. Click OK in the success alert.
Assign a different video input: Click Cancel in the diagnostic alert. The Select Video Input dialog box opens to specify new inputs for the associated textures; see Assigning video inputs.
Work without video inputs: Click Cancel in the diagnostic alert, and then click Cancel in the Select Video Input dialog box. The textures that are associated with unavailable inputs are rendered as black. If you choose to work without video inputs, the saved inputs can be restored mid-session.
Capture cards must be plugged in when Vision is launched.
To restore assigned video inputs:
Select Render > Restore Video Inputs.
An alert displays the status of video inputs in the file.
If faulty inputs remain, they are indicated for troubleshooting. Fix the connectivity issues.
When all assigned inputs are available, click OK; the inputs automatically display on the associated textures.
