Displaying images from cameras

Each video display window has its own buttons and operation menu. It is possible to operate up to four video
display windows separately by clicking on any of its control buttons.
[ Casting ]
Click the [Casting] button to start casting (streaming video). See Section 4.4 for more information
about casting. You can also start casting by choosing [Start/Switch Casting] from the [Menu]
pull-down. When casting from a window, the border of that window will turn blue and the [Casting]
button is highlighted.

Click the [Capture] button to start recording the image from the camera to a disk drive. The
[ Capture ] button will turn red when recording. You can also start recording by choosing [Start

highlighted.
Click [ Capture ] again to stop recording.
Recorded images are saved in the location specified on Option dialog of Streamproducer. Please
see Section6.2, "Option dialog" for specifying a location for saving files.
The capture function is independent of casting. You can be casting from one source at the same
