Wipe transition parameters
Rate The length of the wipe transition in seconds and frames.
Pattern The pattern setting lets you change the wipe pattern from the LCD menu.
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. On the
advanced panel symmetry can be adjusted using the z axis of the joystick.
Position X and Y If the wipe pattern has positioning, then the x position and y position menu
settings can be used to move the center of the pattern. The trackball on
ATEMTelevision Studio Pro HD can also be used to make positioning changes and
will dynamically update the x and y position values in the software control panel.
Direction Press the set button to change the direction between normal and reverse.
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
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 Press the set button to toggle flip flop on or off. When FlipFlop mode is
toggled on, the transition changes between normal to reverse every time the
transition is executed.
Border Softness The edges of the wipe can be adjusted between sharp and fuzzy by adjusting
the border softness parameter.
Border Width Width of the border.
Border Fill The source for the border. The border source used in a wipe transition can be
any source in the switcher. For example, a thick border with the media player
as its source can be used for sponsorship or branding.
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 ATEM Television Studio HD:
1 Press a source button on the control panel to select the video source that you want on
the program output. The button will illuminate green.
2 Press the 'menu' button to open the LCD menu and navigate to the 'transitions' settings.
Set the transition type to DVE.
3 Now set the DVE pattern, for example push or squeeze, the direction of the DVE, and
change the rate if you need to.
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.
4 Press the 'auto' button on the control panel to perform the DVE transition.
