USING MULTIPLE NETWORK VIDEO SOURCES
You can network multiple devices simultaneously with TriCaster. Just repeat the steps outlined above in
sections 4 and 5 to prepare and connect the device(s). The same steps also apply for using the second
network input, NET 2.
IMPORTANT: If you are having trouble connecting your device, try retracing your steps. Refer to the
FAQ section of your TriCaster Mini User Guide for additional troubleshooting tips and solutions to
common networking issues.
IMPORTANT: TriCaster Mini offers one-click access to many streaming providers for your
convenience—including a built-in plugin for Ustream, the default streaming provider. Choosing to use
a streaming provider or setting up your own streaming server should be done at your discretion based
on your needs (be sure to review the features, pricing, terms and conditions of your chosen provider
before signing up for an account). If you have questions about a particular streaming service, we
recommend you contact the streaming provider directly.
