DME Wipes

Overview

A DME wipe is an effect that uses a DME effect to switch
from the current output image to a new image.
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 (resizer
DME wipe) in transitions and independent key transitions
where a key is selected (inserted/removed) as the result of
the transition (next transition event).
Notes
• When the switcher signal format is 3840×2160PsF SQD,
DME wipes cannot be used.
DME wipe pattern groups
DME wipe patterns are classified into the following
groups.

• When the switcher signal format is 3840×2160P SQD,
only resizer DME wipes can be used.
• There are restrictions on the number of DME channels
that can be used and on the functions, depending on the
switcher and signal format.
For differences in functions by switcher, see "XVS-9000/
8000/7000/6000 System Configuration Comparison"
(page 509).
For details about restrictions for 4K format, see "4K

Types of DME Wipe Patterns

The patterns used for a DME wipe fall into two broad
classes.
Preset patterns: Patterns with predetermined effects
User programmable DME patterns: Patterns that you
create using keyframe effects (see page 165)
