Replay and Telestration
ο»Ώ
LIVE is constantly in a state of recording whenever there is video input to LIVE. Thus, you can set an in point and an out point to create and save a replay clip. You can also specify a speed of playback for your replay.
LIVE also offers you a set of tools for telestration. With these tools you can draw arrows to illustrate movement, highlight things in your video such as players on a field, and more. Illustrated replay is a powerful feature of LIVE that enhances your ability to offer your viewers a deeper understanding of what they are watching.
Click the Telestration Layout button, at the right of the user interface. The interface now displays a Replay monitor in the center and tools for replay and telestration on the right.ο»Ώ
Click one of the Source buttons above the Replay monitor. This video populates the replay monitor. Any source is available for replay and telestration, regardless of what sources are in the Preview and Program channels.Β
Chroma key feature can be used to improve telestration tools by blending them with the background instead of overlapping the players. Enabling Chroma key across the pitch creates a refined and higher quality output.
On the Setup tab, click the paint drop icon and apply it across the pitch on the screen.
Click on Tools tab and apply the telestration to view the improved output.
