You can use images in your custom channel layouts to create a background for your source, to add your
corporate logo, or to add relevant information about the event you're streaming.
VGADVI Recorder Pro supports png (PNG) and .jpg (JPEG) images. You can upload any image from 16×16
pixels to a maximum resolution size of 3840×2160, however it's strongly recommended that you upload
exactly the size you need to avoid having your image scaled.
In earlier releases, there were separate procedures for adding backgrounds and logos to a channel. These
actions are now both considered adding an image to a custom channel layout and can be accomplished with
the steps below.
You can add a picture to a layout on an existing channel or you can create a new channel. If you're not sure
