Hi,
I am trying to use custom video input names but the user manual did not provide me with an easy to understand instructions on how to do that! Here what it says:
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Custom video input names
Custom input names can be assigned using XML as part of the StudioCal XML schema. See Using the StudioCal XML schema on page 71 for complete information on the StudioCal XML schema.
Once a custom name has been created for an input it will be available as an option on the Rename inputs menu until a new custom name is assigned or a Factory reset is performed.
There are two elements associated with custom video input names.
Video input element
A unique custom name can be assigned to each video input, allowing you maximum flexibility. To support this, a video input parent element is used to enclose the information for each custom video input name. This element contains one “entries” tag to specify the number of input names in the XML file. The “entries” tag supports integer values between one and five.
The element should be structured as follows:<video_input entries="INTEGER, 1–5"></video_input>
Input info element
The input info element provides contains two tags:●input: The input the custom name will be assigned to. The following values are supported:○
DisplayPort1○
DisplayPort2○
HDMI1○
HDMI2○
USB●name: The custom name to be assigned to the input. Names up to 16 characters in length are supported.
The element should be structured as follows:<input_info input="INPUT" name="Custom Name"/>
Custom video input name example
The following is an example of a StudioCal XML file showing the usage of the custom video input name elements.<?xml version="1.0" encoding="ISO-8859-1"?><studiocal> <video_input entries="2"> <input_info input="DisplayPort1" name="HP Z840"/> <input_info input="HDMI1" name="AJA Kona"/> </video_input>
Renaming
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
It says "Once a custom name has been created" without telling me how exactly to create it!
Can anyone help me how to do that?
