How to use
On the General page, the Encoders table provides an overview of all available Elemental Live encoder elements in the system. When you configure each encoder with details such as Location, Event Name Filter, and Booking Name Format, new rows will be generated in the Channel Overview table.
When a regular expression is entered in the Event Name Filter field, the system will utilize the content matching the first capturing group of the regular expression. The channel name that should be extracted needs to be placed within the parentheses of the first capturing group in a regex pattern (see Examples).
When a format is entered in the Booking Name Format field, placeholder {0} must be used, and it will be replaced with the channel name. You can add any desired text before or after the placeholder to customize the booking name (see Examples).
When you right-click the Encoders table, the Encoder Swap option is available in the context menu. This enables swapping encoding events from one encoder to another.
The Live Events page provides an overview of all live events from each encoder available in the system.
