shadow near the edges of the visible data. The author of the GIF often assumes a<br />

certain background color (white, <strong>for</strong> example) and that color becomes embedded in<br />

the actual image.<br />

When <strong>Wirecast</strong> <strong>for</strong> <strong>YouTube</strong> displays these types of images, the edges of the visible data<br />

will show the background that was saved in the GIF. This is not a defect in <strong>Wirecast</strong> <strong>for</strong><br />

<strong>YouTube</strong> and, there<strong>for</strong>e, <strong>Wirecast</strong> <strong>for</strong> <strong>YouTube</strong> can only present the data as it exists in<br />

the GIF. The solution is to obtain the original image and re-save the image as either TIFF<br />

or PNG. Both of these <strong>for</strong>mats offer full Opacity.<br />

<strong>Wirecast</strong> <strong>for</strong> <strong>YouTube</strong> supports a wide variety of movie <strong>for</strong>mats (MOV, AVI, WMV, etc).<br />

Sometimes, however, you need to install a codec to use these <strong>for</strong>mats. A very<br />

commonly desired codec is DivX®. <strong>Wirecast</strong> <strong>for</strong> <strong>YouTube</strong> in<strong>for</strong>ms you if a codec is<br />

missing or if you need to install one. It is beyond the scope of this user guide to<br />

describe all of the possible codecs available on the market today, or explain the<br />

installation details. Contact the codec provider <strong>for</strong> details on installation.<br />

Problems Showing Movie Types<br />

AVI Video<br />

Real Media<br />

If you are having difficulty, try to open the media with QuickTime player and/or<br />

<strong>Windows</strong> Media Player be<strong>for</strong>e contacting technical support. If these players cannot<br />

open the file, the codec is most likely improperly installed (or there is no available<br />

codec <strong>for</strong> that media).<br />

Note: <strong>Wirecast</strong> <strong>for</strong> <strong>YouTube</strong> does not currently support some file <strong>for</strong>mats (.mpg,<br />

.mpeg, .m1v, .m2v). The solution is to convert the media into a different type such as<br />

MPEG-4.<br />

Some AVI files may play the audio but not the video. The solution is to convert the<br />

media into a supported type, such as MPEG-4.<br />

Real Media Files (.RM) are not supported by <strong>Wirecast</strong> <strong>for</strong> <strong>YouTube</strong>. The solution is to<br />

convert the media into a different type such as MPEG-4.<br />
