Working with image overlays

You can impose static images onto a video in a MediaLive channel. A static image is a still image that doesn't have motion. You prepare the image or images and store them outside of MediaLive. You then use the schedule feature in MediaLive to set up a timetable that specifies when images will be inserted in the running channel, and when each will be removed.
