Pearl Mini User Guide Create a channel
a channel after the channel is created.
The default encoding settings for a channel are:
l
Video : H.264, 1920x1080@30 fps, auto bit rate
l
Audio : AAC, 48kHz stereo, 320 kbps
If the channel's video source doesn't have a 16:9 aspect ratio, the system automatically detects
the correct aspect ratio and updates the layout after you leave and return to the custom layout
editor page. This happens because the channel's encoding page has
Use current signal
resolution as frame size selected by default. If you want to change the aspect ratio for your
channel, see Configure encoding .
For optimal performance, Pearl Mini comes pre-configured with two full HD channels at 30 fps: HDMI-A and
HDMI-B. You may find it easier to reconfigure those existing channels instead of deleting and creating new
ones. For important considerations before deleting channels when configuration presets are used, see
Configuration preset considerations .
It's possible to create a third channel and adjust the encoding settings of your channels to economize the CPU
processing, but we don't guarantee optimum performance from your Pearl Mini with three channels. To
optimize the performance of your Pearl Mini if you have more than two channels configured, consider
deleting unused layouts and avoiding up scaling or down scaling video sources.
Each additional channel and layout consumes additional CPU processing capacity of Pearl Mini, see Optimum
CPU performance .
When you create a channel, it's convenient to add your video and audio sources at that time. Channels can
have one or more video and audio sources. This procedure includes basic steps to add a single video and
audio source.
To create a channel:
1. Login to the Admin panel as admin , see Connect to the Admin panel .
2. From the Channels menu, click Add channel . The custom layout editor for the new channel opens
and the default layout is selected.
A 16:9 workspace appears in the layout area.
