An idle image is an image that is displayed when the encoder is not running.  This is the image that users will see if they try to watch the live stream, when the encoder is not streaming.

To set an idle image for an encoder, first click the Edit icon beside the encoder.

Next, select the image you would like to use as the idle image, and click Apply.

Upon applying the new idle image, the Current image will be updated to confirm your selection.  Now, when a user visits the live stream page on your website when the encoder is not streaming, they will see the newly selected image.
