Important note for channels with multiple layouts
By default (and historically), VGADVI Recorder Pro's channels are named automatically based on the content
in the channel.
When a channel has only one layout, and that layout has only one source (regardless of whether or not there
are pictures or overlays in the layout), the channel name is the same as the source name.
For example:
By default, a channel with one layout that has HDMI-A in it will be named HDMI-A.
When you add a second layout to a channel, the channel name changes to a generic name
Channel X
(where
X is the channel index number). Normally this wouldn't pose any problem, but the changing name does have
some side effects: the stream is stopped and restarted, and the channel's recorder (if recording) is stopped
and a new file is started.
Furthermore, when you delete layouts in a channel until there is only one layout (with one source) left, the
channel name reverts to the source name.
To avoid any issue with changing channel names on channels where you'll have more than one layout, we
strongly recommend you rename the channel to a custom name (
. This will ensure no
automatic channel name changes.
