Basic Video Processing

This section introduces basic functions used for video
processing on the switcher.

Transition

In the M/E banks and PGM/PST bank, the switch from the
current video stream (appearing on the corresponding
program monitor) to a new video stream is referred to as a
transition.
In the M/E banks and PGM/PST bank, you can change one
image on the background or on keys 1 to 8 (downstream
keys 1 to 8 in the PGM/PST bank), and also vary the
combination of these simultaneously.
Note
When the signal format is 1080P, only keys 1 to 4 can be
used.
Background A
The following are examples of basic transitions.
Changing the background
A background transition switches from the video currently
selected on the background A bus (the current video) to the
video selected on the background B bus (the new video).
Background B
In the default selection of flip-flop mode (see page 87), the
background always switches in the direction A bus t B
bus. When the transition completes, the cross-point
selections on the A and B buses are interchanged.

Inserting and deleting a key
You can insert one or more of the eight keys (or
downstream keys 1 to 8 on the PGM/PST bank) into the
image.
If you select a key which is already inserted, the transition
will delete the key.
A simultaneous combination of deleting and inserting keys
is also possible.
