AirMedia Canvas Functionality

AirMedia Canvas allows multiple sources to present simultaneously on the display. AirMedia Canvas automatically configures the best possible layout to maximize screen coverage based on the number of active sources, the type of sources, their orientation, and their aspect ratios.

The following sources can share space on a display simultaneously:

• AirMedia (Windows, Android, Mac, iOS, AirPlay/Miracast)

  NOTE: The AirMedia extension for Chrome OS is not supported and will only be allowed to present full screen.

• HDMI

  NOTE: When the AirMedia Canvas feature is enabled, the 4:2:0 color space is used for high definition sources connected to the HDMI input port. When the AirMedia Canvas feature is disabled, the 4:4:4 color space is used. If the 4:4:4 color space is required by sources connected to the HDMI input port, the AirMedia Canvas should be disabled.

When enabled, AirMedia Canvas works as follows:

• If one source is active, the source presents in full screen.

• If multiple sources are active, the sources present in a way that maximizes screen coverage depending on their aspect ratios.

• When multiple sources are active, and all but one of the sources is disconnected, the single source returns to full screen.

• If the maximum amount of sources is reached and another source is selected, then the first active source is docked (AirMedia user) or disconnected (hard wired inputs, AirPlay connection, or Miracast connection). When docked, the source stops presenting but remains connected to the display.

• When all sources are disconnected, the display shows the front of the room experience splash screen.

When AirMedia Canvas is disabled, the display shows one source at a time.

For details on using a touch screen to control AirMedia Canvas, refer to AirMedia Canvas. For details on using a computer or iOS device to control AirMedia canvas, refer to Share Content .
