Pipelines (Per Stream)

The Pipelines tab controls which pipelines run on this stream and how their outputs map to the live preview.

Attach Pipelines​

  1. Open the stream.
  2. Go to Pipelines.
  3. Click Add to assign one or more pipelines.

Assigned pipelines can be:

  • Dragged into grid slots.
  • Removed/detached from the stream.
  • Opened in the pipeline tuner.

Grid Layout​

The tab supports a layout grid for multiplexing and comparison.

  • For simple setups, use 1x1.
  • For multiplexing, increase rows/columns and place pipelines into slots.
Performance Note

Any grid larger than 1x1 can have a noticeable performance impact (more composition work, more previews to manage). Use > 1x1 only when tuning/debugging, and keep normal operation at 1x1 when possible.

Output Selection (Live Preview)​

For each pipeline or grid slot you can select an image-like output port.

  • The live preview uses the selected output (commonly frame for annotated overlays).
  • If outputs are still being fetched, the UI may show Loading outputs….

Wiring Between Pipelines​

When a stream runs multiple pipelines, the page can also persist pipeline-to-pipeline wires.

Use this when one attached pipeline should feed another instead of every pipeline reading directly from the raw stream frame.

Tuning​

Use the sliders/tuning action to open the pipeline tuner for this stream and apply per-stream overrides (without editing the pipeline graph).

Outputs (Ports + Samples)​

This tab can expose an outputs viewer action for attached pipelines (often shown as a code icon).

When available, it opens a floating Pipeline outputs panel that:

  • Lists non-image output ports produced by the running pipeline on this stream.
  • Lets you expand a port to read a live sample value.
  • Lets you copy a sample to your clipboard.

Notes:

  • Image-like outputs (frames/overlays) are intentionally excluded from the outputs sample panel. Use the stream preview output selector to view those.
  • The outputs viewer is a floating panel so you can keep it visible while navigating.
