Affecting the Admin panel
l
It is possible to name two or more channels with the same value. Use of automatic file transfer and UPnP is
unpredictable if this occurs.
Workaround
: Ensure each channel has a unique name.
l
Cropping a video source to 16:9 using the layout editor may not scale correctly and can appear as a thin
line in the layout editor. This happens when the device or web browser you're using with the admin
interface has a different approach to composing layout. Recording and streaming are not affected.
Workaround
: Due to color space limitations (YUV with 2x2 subsampling), the cropped region's dimensions
must be set to even values.
l
The special preview mode that lets you preview all channels at once using a web browser isn't functioning.
Workaround
: Preview individual channels using different tabs in your web browser.
Affecting Epiphan Live
l
Very fast, repeated switching between layouts using the Switcher interface can sometimes cause the
monitoring panels and the preview in the Admin Panel to display an blank screen until the video image
finishes loading.
Workaround
: Avoid repeated fast switching between layouts.
l
The green and red borders around the "Preview" and "Live" areas in the Channel section are offset from
the video by a few pixels.
Workaround
: The offset is cosmetic and does not affect your Live stream, so no workaround is required.
l
When a HDMI output assigned to a Dashboard preview panel has its source changed, the preview panel
does not automatically update to reflect the change.
Workaround
: Refresh the Epiphan Live Dashboard in your web browser to update any changes in your
preview panels.
Affecting video output ports
l
When setting up the video output ports on Pearl Mini, the video input source's frame rate as set for the
channel is used by default for the video at the output. The
Frame rate
field in the video output port
settings does not change the frame rate of the video at the output port or change the frame rate of the
connected display device.
Workaround
: Ignore the Frame rate field in the video output port settings.
Affecting USB devices
Affecting CMS integrations
l
When configuring the primary channel and audio sources for a Pearl Mini remote recorder in Panopto,
choosing a Pearl Mini channel that has no audio as the primary video source without choosing a primary
audio source from another channel can cause the remote recorder's preview to not display properly in
Panopto.
Workaround
: Choose a primary audio source from one of the other channels.
