No, this was a beta feature of 1.0 that we did not pursue for 1.1 (or 1.2) and are hoping to address in 1.3. We focused on adding support for webcams and other video devices instead. There are jiras to refactor and get confidence monitoring going though. > Basically we need this to work. Any idea where it's breaking? No, but I can suggest that if you want to hack something special into the gstreamer command before we record you could potentially do that with a custom video producer. I would not recommend this because making sure it works properly on your hardware would take some time, but you *should* be able to do live confidence monitoring by changing the gstreamer device line to include a tee similar to the one Armin did here: http://opencast.jira.com/wiki/display/MH/Examples+of+Gstreamer+Piplines+with+NCast+VGA+and+Video+Grabber+Cards It would require beefy capture agents hardware wise, or a huge reduction in framerate, but I think it would be doable. Time investment would be large.
