Good morning,

Is it possible to have two video streams and switch between them at the same point in time.

For example: if I have two different camera angles of the same event, can I switch between the cameras (video streams) whilst remaining at the same point in time?

Thanks in advance.

Hello Alan,

Yes, there are 2 ways: using angles and using 2 independent movies (playlists).

For the angles switching will be fast enough, but there are bitrate limitations (it is recommended to use CBR, 15 Mbps). You should use playlist and here you can specify additional angles. Check playlist window and its help.

For 2 independent videos you will need to change resume time for the second video using Java. F.e.
manager.saveResumeTime('Movie 2', manager.getMediaTime());
sets the resume time for the "Movie 2" equal to the current playing time for the current movie. After this you can start "Movie 2".
