Introduction
Beginning with LIR V2.1, Liberty Interview Recorder has provided support for dual-camera recording. Dual camera recording means that the Liberty system captures and records two complete video feeds for each recording session, instead of doing a more traditional picture-in-a-picture overlay. Dual camera support is critical for applications where users want to capture two complete streams of video. This can be especially important for child advocate or adolescent interviews where the subject may move around. The older picture-in-a-picture type solution uses an overlay technique where a portion of the recording stream may be overlaid by a second camera feed, thus obscuring some of the camera range.
