This section contains information on each item in the Media menu of Wirecast:

Start Playing All Movies

Any movies that are not playing will begin playing.

Pause All Movies

All movies that are currently playing are paused.

Play to Next Point

Some media have embedded markers ("points"). An example is a Keynote Movie that has been exported for Wirecast.

This menu option will play all media to the next marker / point.

Jump to Previous Point

Some media have embedded markers ("points"). An example is a Keynote Movie that has been exported for Wirecast.

This menu option will force all media to jump back to the previews marker / point, and then pause.

New Desktop Presenter

If Bonjour not installed on the computer that is running Desktop Presenter, then you may need to manually enter the TCP/IP address of the computer running Presenter.

You may also use this menu option to pre-configure your document if you wish to add a Desktop Presenter before it is available. You can change the IP address to a Desktop Presenter in the Asset Manager dialog.

Asset Manager

Opens the Asset Manager dialog.

Configure Devices

Some devices (cameras, etc) may be able to be configured.

For example, you can configure an iSight to manually change the focus, contrast, brightness, etc. Other devices have multiple inputs that you can choose between (AlchemyTV Card, etc).

Choose the device you wish to configure from this menu.

NOTE: The configuration user interface is provided by the device maker. It is beyond the scope of this document to describe all of the features available for all devices. See the documentation provided with your device on how to configure it.
