Webcast Preview Window

When using the Meetinghouse Webcast software, is there any way to enlarge the small camera preview windows in the lower third of the screen?

Not currently. However if your want to have a larger picture of the camera feed, you could plug the camera into an inexpensive video distribution amplifier which would provide an output for a TV monitor AND the webcast equipment.

A Video D/A can be purchased for about $30 or you can find used ones for much less. Please do not just put a "Y" splitter to get an addition video feed. The proper way to get additional video outputs is with a distribution amplifier.

If your camera is routed through the satellite video cabinet, you could connect your webcasting equipment to the video out jack on the front panel and connect a TV set to the RF output tuned to the correct channel. If the front panel does not have any jacks for video or RF, the video distribution amplifier inside the cabinet may have unused jacks you can tap the composite video signal from.
