• Enable - Turn the video output window on or off.
• Video resolution - Set the video window to a fixed size. It is recommended to use HD 1280x720 windowed output if your stream is in HD format or 1920x1080 if your stream is in FULL HD format. In fact, using the same video resolution as the video stream reduces CPU consumption as the frames do not have to be scaled by the software
• GPU: if you have 2 or more GPUs in your computer, here you can specify the name of the GPU to use for video decoding and rendering. You can also specify only the manufacturer name. For example, if you have an NVIDIA GPU + an Intel GPU, you can write "NVIDIA" if you want to use the NVIDIA GPU or "Intel" if you want to use the "Intel" GPU. If the box is empty, Windows will decide which GPU to use. This setting should not be confused with the GPU for video encoders, which should be adjusted here: VIDEO - SET GPU TYPE
• Always on top - No other windows will position themselves in front of the video window.
• Full screen - when starting MB STUDIO it goes full screen (right click on the video window to enter/exit full screen). Not recommended if you send the video over the internet
• Hide the window title bar: remove the top border of the video window and lock its position (sometimes necessary for VMIX users).
• VIDEO - NDI OUTPUT
• VIDEO - DECKLINK OUTPUT
• Video transitions: simple video transitions such as horizontal, vertical, diagonal and center SLIDE are applied. Warning: during a video transition the MB STUDIO user interface becomes unresponsive, if that bothers you use the minimum duration 250ms or don't use transitions.
  
• Software decoders: if active, the video files are decoded by the CPU rather than by the GPU (not recommended)
• Zero copy: This option can increase performance and reduce power consumption, but may cause incorrect sampling of the image on the bottom and right edges due to padding, and may cause bugs in drivers, since Direct3D 11 does not technically allow sampling from a decoder surface (although most drivers support it).
• Fast profile: If your computer is not very powerful, this option reduces the quality and increases the video performance.

IMAGE OR VIDEO OR STREAM FOR BACKGROUND

It is possible to set a background which can be an image or a video or an external stream which is visible when no video is being broadcast. This parameter can also be changed via Agenda \ Internal Command in MB STUDIO PRO
