Active Source Highlights

You can have up to four input sources. MXProDV labels the sources A, B, C, and D.
(There is also a fifth, built-in source — the mixer's own background color generator.)
All transitions start with one source, called the CURRENT source, and end with
another, called the NEXT source.
Colored highlights help identify one video source from another. Yellow highlights
the CURRENT video source (above the preview image), and green highlights the
NEXT video source (below it).

Color Selector

The Color Selector shows current choices for background color, border color, and
border style. The selector shows the actual colors, and also shows the numeric values
associated with each. This example shows a background color 5, border color 7, and
border style 5.
Border
You can cycle through all available colors for each component using the
BORDER COLOR
page 53.
Some sources provide audio only, others provide both video and audio. The
speaker icon (rather than a colored highlight) indicates the CURRENT and
NEXT audio selections.
The headphones icon identifies the channel to which the headphone output
is currently directed. If 4-channel audio output is selected, the icon is pre-
ceded by a 1 or a 2 to indicate which pair is being played.
buttons indicate the currently selected video sources.
A steady light identifies
the CURRENT video
source. A blinking light
identifies the NEXT
video source.
