Spotlighting Settings - Sony MVS-8000X User Manual

Ext Video: Insert the external video signal input to the Ext
IN connector in the afterimage portion.
Rainbow: Use a freeze image with the hue changing every
frame in the afterimage portion. The difference from
"Hue Rotate" is that many colors appear
simultaneously.
For details of the Rainbow parameters, see the "Hue
Rotate" item above.

Spotlighting Settings

You can set up to three light sources (lights 1 to 3).
Notes
• The Spotlighting effect is not supported on the MVE-
8000A.
• The BZDM-9050 Texture Lighting Software (for MVE-
9000) is required to set lights 2 and 3.
• When the global effect Combiner is enabled, the settings
of the smallest-numbered channel selected for the
Combiner are used.
Adjustments to the image surface
The following adjustments can be made to the image
surface struck by the light.
• Adjusting the brightness of the whole image
• Selecting the image surface effect
• Test sphere function
• Adjusting the bumpiness of the image surface
• Coordinate axis on surface of image
• Texture deformations
Selecting the image surface effect
Flat: The image surface is unchanged, causing the selected
light source to appear as the effect.
Texture: A texture appears on the surface of the image.
Textures can be selected from among 30 patterns (see
page 354).
Non Linear: Spotlighting effect is applied to an area to
which a DME nonlinear effect is applied.
Notes
The BZDM-9050 is required to enable Texture and Non
Linear settings on the MVE-9000.
Test sphere function
A test sphere is a translucent sphere virtually embedded in
Setting values
the center of the input picture to provide an intuitive way
0.00 to 100.00
for you to check the position and direction of the spotlight.
When you change the position or direction of a light
source, the side of the sphere closest to the light source
–100.00 to
grows brighter. You can easily check the position and
+100.00
direction of the light source by viewing the test sphere (see
page 289).
0.00 to 100.00
Coordinate axis on surface of image
Specify where to apply the texture or test sphere on the
–100.00 to
image surface.
+100.00
Move: The texture moves together with the DME image.
Image before movement
Fix: The texture does not move, even if the DME image
moves.
Image before movement
Texture deformations
You can change the texture pattern, position, and size, and
use the repetition function.
The following figure shows examples of a texture pattern
repeated in the X and Y directions.
Coordinate axis = Move
Texture moves together
with DME image.
Coordinate axis = Fix
Texture does not move, even
if DME image moves.
