• Keyframe Effects for Moves
Numerous predefined keyframe effects are available for “moves,” including linear,
linear accelerations, arches and boomerangs motion types. In Chapter 7, refer to
the “
Using Move” section on page 313 for details.
• Clone Function
For wide screen configurations (only), the Clone function enables you to clone a
PIP or a Key on a particular M/E, creating a copy of the effect on the opposite
screen. All attributes are cloned, including size, source, border and shadow. In
Chapter 7, refer to the “
Using Clone” section on page 308 for details.
• LCD Calibration
The LCD calibration function improves the accuracy of the Touch Screens. In
Chapter 7, refer to the “
Touch Screen Calibration” section on page 282.
• Support for Analog Backgrounds
Using the Background Input Setup Menu, you can choose between Analog, DVI
Matte and “frame grab” backgrounds. In Chapter 5, refer to the “
Background
Input Setup Menu” section on page 217 for details.
• Support for Two Separate Matte Colors
Two separate matte colors can be defined, one for BG A and one for BG B. In
Chapter 5, refer to the “

page 220 for details.
• EDID
The EDID (Extended Display Identification Data) programming procedure is a
prerequisite for background and DSK setup. The procedure guarantees proper
communications at the preferred resolution between Encore’s DVI inputs and your
external equipment. In Chapter 6, refer to the “
Programming EDID” section on
page 248 for details.
• User Keys
On the Controller LC, User Keys are available when you press User Copy (a new
button next to the
Copy button). This action accesses the User Key Copy Setup
Menu, which enables you to select all (or a portion) of the current effect’s
attributes, such as border color, PIP size, aspect ratio, etc. In Chapter 7, refer to
the “
Working with User Keys” section on page 327 for operating instructions.
• Group Buttons
All Group buttons operate with “toggle” functionality rather than “additive”
functionality. In Chapter 7, refer to the “
Working with Groups” section on
page 290 for instructions.
• Layer Join Mode
The “Join” mode enables you to create a fixed relationship between a mixer’s two
layers. Whenever the mixer is selected, the two layers size, position, and move
as one. In Chapter 7, refer to the “
Using Join Mode” section on page 311 for
instructions.
• Key Cut and Fill
The “Key Cut and Fill” function enables you to cut a key in Layer B and fill it with
video from Layer A — within the same Mixer. The two Layers can be
manipulated independently or joined using the “Join” function. In Chapter 7, refer
to the “
Using Cut & Fill” section on page 303 for instructions.
