Marker info parent element

The details for each marker line is stored in two elements. Therefore a “marker_info” parent element is used

to enclose the details for each marker line. This element does not include any tags and must be enclosed

within a marker parent element.

<marker_info>

</marker_info>

Marker position element

startx: The line’s x axis starting point. Integer values between 1 and 2560 are supported.

endx: The line’s x axis ending point. Integer values between 1 and 2560 are supported.

starty: The line’s y axis starting point. Integer values between 1 and 1440 are supported.

endy: The line’s y axis ending point. Integer values between 1 and 1440 are supported.

Structure the element as follows:

<marker_pos startx="INTEGER" endx="INTEGER" starty="INTEGER"

The width and color for each line is stored in a single “marker_style” element. The element contains the

following tags:

width: The line’s width. Integer values between 1 and 10 are supported.

● white

● red

● green

Custom marker example

The following is an example of a StudioCal XML le showing the usage of the marker tags. The example draws

two lines to indicate the 4:3 caption safe area, as dened in EBU R 95.

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="ISO-8859-1"?>

<marker_info>

<marker_pos startx="416" endx="416" starty="0" endy="1440"/>
