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 an ATEM broadcast panel
1 On the preview bus, select the video source that you want on the program output.
2 On the ATEM 2 M/E Broadcast Panel, press the DVE button which illuminates yellow.
On the ATEM 1 M/E Broadcast Panel, press the SHIFT and WIPE/DVE buttons to select
the DVE transition type. The WIPE/DVE button illuminates green to indicate the DVE
transition type is selected. The system control automatically navigates to the DVE
pattern menu. To manually navigate to the DVE pattern menu press HOME > TRANS >
DVE PATTRN.
If the DVE is already being used in an upstream key, the message DVE unavailable will
be displayed and 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 Use the system control menu buttons to select the DVE effects, graphic effects and to
enable/disable the DVE Key.
4 Use the knobs and buttons in the system control to customize the DVE transition.
Youcan also enter a DVE rate using the number pad followed by the set rate button.
5 If you are performing a graphic DVE/WIPE, use the select bus to select the logo fill
source. Then press the DEST SHIFT or CUT/FILL button, depending upon your model
of broadcast panel and use the select bus to select the logo cut source.
