The HOME Graphic Inserter creates an outgoing video stream from a HTML5 input source. It can be used to turn 2D or 3D animated graphics into video streams.

The user must define the desired output video format and resolution using the app configuration controls.

Please note: The format of the HTML5 page (height and width) must match that of the Video Resolution defined in the app's configuration. No resizing of the HTLM5 source is performed by the Graphic Inserter app.

This app is part of the current release of HOME Apps, and benefits from the usual advantages of a HOME Apps environment: deployment on standard network servers; instant availability; flexible resource allocation through Lawo Flex licensing; integration with external broadcast control systems, such as Lawo's VSM.
