Normal The normal direction for closed patterns such as circles, diamonds and boxes is to
grow from the center of the screen and progress outward.
Reverse Reverse changes the progression of closed patterns such as circles,
diamonds and boxes so that the pattern closes in from the edges of the screen
toward the center.
FlipFlop When FlipFlop mode is toggled on, the transition changes between normal
to reverse every time the transition is executed.
Border Width of the border.
Soft The edges of the wipe pattern can be adjusted between sharp and fuzzy by
adjusting the softness parameter.
DVE Transitions
Your ATEM switcher includes a powerful digital video effects processor for DVE transitions.
A DVE transition displaces the image in various ways to transition from one picture to another.
For example, a DVE transition can be used to squeeze the current picture off screen revealing
a new video under it.
To perform a DVE transition on the ATEM 1 M/E Advanced Panel:
1
On the preview bus, select the video source that you want on the program output.
2 Press the DVE transition type button to select the DVE transition. The DVE settings will
appear on the LCD menu.
NOTE If the DVE is already being used in an upstream key, the DVE transition
type will not be available for selection until the key is taken off air and off next
transition. Refer to 'sharing DVE resources' later in this section for
more information.
3 In the DVE LCD menu, use the soft control knobs and buttons to configure the DVE
parameters. For example, select the DVE pattern and movement direction, and adjust
the DVE transition rate.
4 Perform the transition as an auto or manual transition using the auto button or fader bar.
DVE transition parameters
DVE Rate The duration of the DVE transition in seconds and frames. Rotate the DVE rate
knob to adjust the DVE transition rate. The new rate is immediately displayed in the
transition rate window in the transition control block.
Symmetry Symmetry can be used to control the aspect ratio of the pattern.
For example, adjusting the symmetry will allow you to change a circle into an ellipse.
Symmetry can be adjusted using the z axis of the joystick.
