Select Input Channel
Whenever an Input Channel needs to be selected, for example when manually attaching a
channel from an Input Plugin to a Virtual Console widget, the Select Input Channel dialog is
used.
The dialog is very straightforward; there is a list of input universes and each universe that has an
Input Line attached to it, displays the line's (or the attached device's) name after the universe
number. Under each operational universe, there is a list of channels provided by that universe.
You can choose from these channels or select one manually.
If you have an Input Profile attached to the universe, you see the individual channel names and
numbers for the device. If there isn't a Profile attached to an input universe, you will need to type
the channel number manually, by double-clicking the item that tells you to do that and type in the
channel number manually. See also the tutorial on input profiles
NOTE: All Virtual Console widgets that have been made external-input-aware, provide also an
option to automatically detect the input channel so that you don't need do this manual selection.
