How does the encoder know what to “do”?
When the encoder is turned on, it automatically connects to Tech Werks on-line database and downloads over 20 unique items from your on-line account. A few of these items are the Name, Description, Copyright, Rating and Author for the “Next” video you are about to record or broadcast live. It also downloads items like the type of codec to use, the compression profile for the encoding and even which broadcast center to use.
