set. The individual video format settings are stored by the software and

switched automatically when another task mode is activated.

In the Play-out task mode you can set different video format settings

either for the SDI or the DVI and analog outputs. Once set, the respec-

tive format(s) will be automatically applied to the output ports of the

DVS system. By default the DVI/analog output settings are linked to

the video output format of the SDI and, if not configured otherwise,

will be set to the same raster.

Furthermore, when in the Play-out task mode, the set output raster will

be used for the input ports as well, i.e. to receive an input signal in the

Play-out task mode the video output settings have to match the signal

connected to the video input(s). There is also a setting available where

you can determine the port that should be used for an input (setting In-

put port).

To set the video format for the outgoing signal click on the button VID-

EO FORMAT…. Then the following window will be displayed on the

screen:

For more information about the record task modes see chapter

“Capturing Clips” on page 5-1.

The selected SDI output raster is applied to the video overlay

and it may have an effect on the images displayed there (e.g.

they may get cropped). You can use the video overlay to see

the effects immediately.

Any activated settings for burn-in, cropping or a 3D-LUT for

the timeline of the Edit Tool are automatically applied to a time-

line output with the Play-out task mode as well.
