A.4.4 SHARE FILES ON YOUTUBE
®
?
Although you have opened an account with
YouTube® and correctly configured the
account for TriCaster sharing, uploading may
fail because you have not yet created a
YouTube® “channel”.
The basic YouTube® account lets you log in
to watch existing content and make playlists.
To create a channel, follow these additional
steps:
1. Browse to YouTube®, login and click
Upload at the top of the home page.
2. Follow instructions to add a channel
to your account.
Afterward, TriCaster will be able to upload directly to your channel by means of its Share Media feature.
A.4.5 PREPARE CLIPS WITH EMBEDDED ALPHA CHANNEL?
Probably the best format to use for files with embedded alpha channel for use in TriCaster are those encoded
using NewTek’s own SpeedHQ 4:2:2:4 codec. This format can serve for either SD or HD clips, and represents
a high quality, moderately compressed alternative. (As a registered NewTek customer, you can download
the NewTek TriCaster Codec Pack for either Windows® or Mac® platforms from your personal Downloads
page on the NewTek website.)
Apple® computer users have several other options available which support an alpha channel, including the
Animation and PNG Quicktime® movie codecs (select “Millions of ” in the codec settings to include
alpha in the file).
A.4.6 ADD AN EXTERNAL FILE LOCATION TO THE FILE BROWSER?
1. Open (or create) a TriCaster session.
2. Click the Add button for a Media Player (DDR, Still or Title).
3. Click the Add Media Location button at bottom left in the File Browser.
4. Select the folder you wish to list as a location in TriCaster’s File Browser, and click OK.
(See Add Media Location in Section 11.2.2)
A.4.7 REMOVE A LOCATION FROM THE FILE BROWSER?
1. Click the Add button for a Media Player (DDR, Still or Title)
2. Right-click the name of the location you wish to remove from the list, and select Remove in the menu
that opens.
(See the sub-heading File Context Menu in Section 11.2.2)
