    The BirdDog Cloud Router has a very useful feature called Views. Views allows the user to create groups of NDI sources and BirdDog Decoders + Router outputs into Views. This is useful if you have a lot of sources and decoders/router ouputs as the matrix can get quite large and complex. Views allows the user to segment the sources and decoders/router outputs, and only show what is of interest at that particular instance. This could be by studios, rooms, floors etc.

    As we see only the sources and destinations in the view is shown in the matrix.
