Output node

The Output node is the single endpoint of your graph — what actually shows on the program output.

It appears automatically as soon as your graph has at least one node. There is always exactly one, and it can't be deleted while other nodes exist.

What it accepts

The Output node takes either:

  • one blue video stream — from an Input, Process, or Layer node. It's shown directly, with no crossfade — the crossfader and transitions are disabled; or
  • one or more red wires from A/B Select nodes — this enables the usual A/B crossfader and transitions.

You can't mix blue and red into the Output at the same time — it's one or the other.

Choosing which mode you want

  • For a fixed composition with nothing to crossfade, build Input → (Process…) → Layer → Output and connect the Layer's blue output straight to the Output node.
  • For live A/B mixing, route your candidate streams through one or more A/B Select nodes and connect their red outputs to the Output node instead.
