Using the Asset
Manager
Introduction
The Asset Manager is used to change the sources of media in your document.
Topics
 Documents
 Re-assigning Media
Documents
Wirecast stores a path to your media in the Wirecast document. If you relocate your
media, Wirecast no longer is able to find them. In this case, use the Asset Manager to
reassign the new media locations. However, Wirecast does keep track of the relative
path to your media. If you move both the document and media to a new position,
Wirecast still finds the media.
Re-assigning Media
To reassign media, follow these steps:
1. To open the Asset Manager, select Show Asset Manager from the Wirecast Media
menu.
2. Select the media you want to assign to another source.
3. Some media assets (i.e cameras) enable you to set the aspect ratio by displaying a
Device Aspect Ratio menu. You can select an aspect ratio from this menu.
4. Select the new media from the Assign To menu, or click Browse and locate the
replacement media on disk.
Note: When Desktop Presenter is selected as the source, you can enter the IP address
for the Desktop Presenter. This enables you to build a Wirecast presentation with
place-holders and then reconfigure at a later date to accommodate a new presenter
