Using ATEM Software Control
41
Set Video Standard
To change an input name, click in the text field, enter the text and select set. The input name will be updated
on the Multi View, software control panel and broadcast panel if one is connected. It's a very good idea to
change both the short and long labels at the same time, so they match. For example Camera 1 would be
entered in as a long label, and CAM1 as the short label.
Setting the Switcher Video Standard
The video setting is used to select the operating video standard of the ATEM switcher, and this must
be set to the same video standard as the video sources you are plugging into the ATEM switcher. If they
don't match, the inputs won't appear correctly, and will most likely remain black. A good way to work out
the video standard you should use is to check your cameras, and then set the switcher video standard to
the same format.
