This section lists the new Encore features that have been implemented since the last
revision of the Encore Presentation System User’s Guide. Reference links are provided.
• Wide Screen Preview Configuration
Instructions are provided for configuring a system with a fourth Video Processor,
which is then used to create a combined wide screen program/preview display. In
Chapter 3, refer to the “
Wide Screen Configuration Plus Wide Screen Preview”
section on page 67 for details.
• Live Switch Modes
Two Live Switch modes are available:
~ The Live Switch "Source" mode turns both rows of the Source
Selection Bus into a live “Program” bus. In Chapter 7, refer to the
“
Using Live Switch Source Mode” section on page 318.
~ The Live Switch "Program/Preview" mode turns both rows of the
Source Selection Bus into a live “Program/Preview” bus, with the top
row acting as
Program, and the bottom row acting as Preview. In
Chapter 7, refer to the “
Using Live Switch Program/Preview Mode”
section on page 317 for details.
• Tally Mapping
Using the Input Patch menu, you can assign any of the eight available tallies to
any input source. In Chapter 5, refer to the “
Input Source Patch Menu” section
on page 172 for details.
• Invalid Video and LOS
New methods have been implemented to handle invalid video signals and LOS
(loss of video) conditions. In Chapter 5, refer to the “
User Preference Menu”
section on page 187, and in Chapter 7, refer to the “
A Word About LOS” section
on page 286 for details.
• Wide Screen Definition Flexibility
You can create wide screen destinations using Video Processors that do not
contain the same number of M/E boards. In Chapter 6, refer to the “
Destination
Setup” section on page 257 for details.
• Frame Grabs
The Frame Grab button accesses the Frame Grab Menu, which enables you to
store up to three frames per destination. Frames can be captured from any layer
(including the Background and DSK), for use on Program in either the
Background or DSK channels. If the “
Extended Frame Grab” option is installed,
you can store/recall up to 100 frames internally. In Chapter 7, refer to the
“
Working with Frame Grabs” section on page 332 for details.
Note
In the Controller’s Live Switch Section, the Program/
Preview button replaces the previous Layer button.
