Overview

As of V8.4, all LiveEdge® STREAMING subscribers received the video input rotation feature. This feature allows users to now take what would normally be a 16:9 standard widescreen aspect ratio and rotate it in 90-degree increments (to achieve 9:16 aspect ratio for vertical encoding). This user guide will take you step-by-step through rotating your video at the point of origin for your live video production.

Addition to the Web UI

Navigate to Encoder Control > Input Settings and a new dropdown box will appear titled Video Input Rotation

There are four selections under the new Video Input Rotation selection:

1. None - Standard widescreen video input with no rotation
   
2. 90°- Widescreen video input rotated 90° clockwise for vertical encoding
   
3. 180° - Widescreen video input rotated 180° for inverted encoding
   
4. 270° - Widescreen video input rotated 270° clockwise for vertical encoding
   

Note: If changes are made to the Video Input Rotation during a live stream, the output stream will be restarted
