Capture Action
A Capture action is an origin action. It supports Open Workflows on the outbound side
and it is used to capture live SDI inputs and output captured media files to Live Storage
using the specified output container and encoder. The Capture action is executed by
the Live Services, and only works in a Vantage installation on a Lightspeed Capture
