In this mode, input images can be cropped as output images for Out1, Out2 and Out3. By using this mode, the LVP8601 will be mainly used as a switcher of 4 inputs and 3 outputs with seamless or fade effect.
In this mode, we can also press “Fade” to set the time for switching of image layers so as to realize seamless switching or fade effect. By using this mode, LVP8601 will be used for triple-image display from single output plus single-image preview or as a switcher of single output plus single-image preview.
Out1 and Out2 are blended into a complete one and the display is completely synchronous. By using this mode, LVP8601 will be used for pixel-to-pixel sync image mosaic and the maximal resolution supported is 4K x 2K. 16 / 42...
