Blackmagic Design Web Presenter Manual De Instalación Y Funcionamiento página 3

Welcome!
Thank you for purchasing your Blackmagic Web Presenter!
With Blackmagic Web Presenter, our design goal was to make Internet based broadcasting
and even calling using video for presentations dramatically easier. Unlike our traditional capture
cards, which are designed for post production, Blackmagic Web Presenter is quite different
because it transforms the SDI and HDMI video inputs into USB video that uses the webcam
driver that's built into your computer.
What this means is that any SDI or HDMI video source now looks the same as a regular webcam
and any software that works with a webcam will now work with professional broadcast quality
products. With webcam support built into all video streaming and calling software, it means that
you have a very large choice of what streaming platform you can use.
Unlike capture cards that send all the pixels in the video source to the computer, Blackmagic
Web Presenter actually reduces the video resolution down to 720p and can even reduce the
video frame rate down to 20, 15, 10 or 5 frames per second when directed to by the software.
This means you get very high quality HD video in 16:9 aspect ratio, but you also get the lowest
data rate to ensure you can stream video reliably and with regular internet connections.
But Blackmagic Web Presenter is way more than a USB webcam source for SDI and HDMI
video sources, as it also includes a 2 input live switcher so you can do simple multi camera
broadcasts or presentations. All you need to do is add the optional Teranex Mini Smart Panel
and you can then press the 1 and 2 buttons to live switch between sources. But the Teranex
Mini Smart Panel also includes video preview, audio meters, input video standard and USB
frame rate information too!
