DME Wipes

Overview

A DME wipe is a wipe transition that uses a DME effect to
change from one video image to the next.
There are two types of DME wipes: those that can be
selected in a common transition, and those that can be
selected in an independent key transition.
You can also execute a DME wipe using a resizer in
transitions and independent key transitions where a key is
selected (inserted/removed) as the result of the transition
(next transition event).

create using keyframe effects (see page 150)
Effect
The new video slides in over the old video.
The new video appears reduced over the old video, and is progressively enlarged to
cover it.
The old video splits, and the new video appears in the gap.
The new video moves like a door closing, and progressively covers the old video.
The old video rotates about an axis and is replaced by the new video. During the
transition, the signal from the utility 2 bus of the M/E bank appears as the
background.
The new video appears over the old video as a mirror effect slides in all four
directions.
The new video appears wrapped around a sphere over the old video. Next, the
picture returns to the source video while unwrapping.
The new video appears over the old video, as if leaving a trail. Next, the picture
gradually returns to the source from the periphery.
The new video appears with a wave-like effect over the old video. Next, the picture
returns to the source video as the effect reduces.
The new video appears over the old video like outwardly moving ripples.
The old video moves like a page turning, and the new video appears behind it.
The new video unrolls like a scroll over the old video. This is a type of page turn.
Completed in two transitions. In the first transition, the new video appears, then on
the second transition the new video goes out and the source video returns.
